This program will examine key residency concepts and audit issues affecting “snowbirds,” remote workers, and individuals moving into or out of the DMV and New York tristate areas. The presentation will cover domicile, statutory residency, day-count rules, source income, telework issues, and practical documentation strategies. The program will also compare common approaches taken by jurisdictions such as New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Maryland, Virginia, and the District of Columbia, with a focus on identifying risk areas and advising clients before, during, and after a residency audit.

Evaluate the tax risks associated with remote work, temporary relocation, and partial-year moves.
Advise clients on practical recordkeeping, documentation, and planning steps to reduce residency audit exposure.
