Moved from NC to VA but worked in VA the entire year

[Diy2024]

For the first two months of 2024 I lived in NC but worked in VA.  I then moved to VA and continued to work for the same employer.  If I lived in NC the entire year but worked in VA, I believe that I would get a credit on my NC taxes for taxes paid in VA.  How does it work when I move from one state to another?  Do I allocate my earnings based on where I was living at the time?  Does NC get taxes on my VA income for the time that I lived in NC and worked in VA while VA gets taxes on the income that I earned in VA while living in VA?

Yes, you will file a Part Year Resident return for both North Carolina and Virginia.  You are correct, you'll report your VA wages earned while you lived in NC.  In VA, you'll report all your wages (since they are all VA source), but get a credit for tax paid to NC, so you won't be double-taxed on the same income. 

Prepare your NC Part-Year Resident return first.  Here's more info on How to File a Part-Year Resident Return.
