“Soon you’ll need special permission to leave California.”
That’s not even a joke. Before we left in 2010 they were kicking around the idea of an “Exodus Tax”, and it was getting some interest in Sacramento.
Apparently 3 states are trying to bludgeon taxes on part time citizens: Oregon, NY and California.
A friend just lost her husband, They met in NY and got married 5 years ago and moved to California where he worked for the government for decades before retiring.
The husband owned some coastal property in Oregone and had not used the property for 2 decades and had a worthless relative moved into the property for 2 decades and never paid rent.
Now Oregone is say she owes taxes on rent never received by her husband with fines.
NY has something similar going on re their living in California 5 years before he died.
She was warned by a friend to never marry the man she loved.
“She was warned by a friend to never marry the man she loved.”
Often good advice!! The baggage...
