Yes NY plays this game.
I think it is ten years since Rush Limbaugh left NY moving his business and residence to Florida, yet they still harass him every year for taxes; forcing him to prove that he did not do business in NY.
And Jim. Gotta get Jim out, too, before the fence goes up. And all the other Freepers...
most high end residental areas in California in the 40s had racial restrictions but most were removed by the 50s.
1. It helps if your company is transferring you to another state.
2. Re-register your car a.s.a.p.
3. Register to vote in your new location.
4. Ensure old post office has your change of address instructions.
5. Tell the California Franchise Tax Board: “Since you don’t give a damn who comes into this state, or from where, I wasn’t aware I had to ask permission to leave!
About 30 years after we left CA our business in the Pacific Northwest got a bill for 250k from California. I called and told them we didn’t owe because we never did business in CA and this happened about 4 times more before they finally got the picture.
I’d love to move back there but we’re just not rich enough to pay for all those takers the state would assign to us.
They’ll be like the Marylanders in Southern Pa., they came here to flee high taxes but they never met a tax or regulation they didn’t like and now bring their merry hell to this neck of the woods.
I lived in CA from 1960 to 1970 and left at age 11. I’m surprised they haven’t tried to tax me.
I’ll be leaving sooner rather than later. I’m a Confederate rebel.
Which State will become the first 100% government-operated State: New York or California, after all private sector businesses have fled???
Well, at least the California reds still allow people to leave. Communists are known for walling in the slaves.
I hear E Berlin has a few extra bricks and guard towers for sale cheap.

After moving to Texas in 2005, we got letters from the California Franchise Tax Board, demanding we pay $800 for the each of the years since we'd left. That went on for at least three years.
I've never answered them, but maybe I should. They're probably still racking up tax bills on that corp., which no longer even exists.
That guy should have kept the change, the nickels at least are worth more than paper.
That or wheat pennies.
But you can never leave....

It’s risky just passing through California. A few years ago we were sailing from Washington to Hawaii and ducked into Eureka Harbor to shelter from bad weather. We were there for six weeks. They sent us a bill for property taxes on our boat, a USCG Documented vessel, registered home port in Honolulu.
I got out of CA in 2005 (to Washington), but have been back for the past 13 months dealing with the mother-in-law’s estate. Leasing the house in WA out for a second year while we sort this mess out in L.A. So far I’m still maintaining that I’m a WA resident... renewing my car stuff remotely, paying business taxes online in WA, and so on. We’ll see what happens.
