Book Your Free Florida Tax Domicile Consultation

Yes! There's no charge, no obligation, and no credit card required. We offer free consultations because we believe in educating people about Florida tax domicile compliance before they commit to our service. Many people book consultations just to learn, and that's perfectly fine with us.

No, you don't need to live in Florida full-time. Florida domicile is about establishing your "permanent home" in Florida, not necessarily living there 365 days a year. However, you should spend significant time in Florida (typically following the 183-day rule for your previous state), maintain a Florida address, driver's license, voter registration, and sever ties with your previous state.

Yes, but it requires careful documentation. You can own property in other states, but your Florida residence must be your "permanent home" and domicile. You'll need to demonstrate through documentation, spending patterns, and lifestyle changes that Florida is truly your primary residence. We'll walk you through exactly what's required during your consultation.

Residency is where you live, while domicile is your permanent legal home - the place you intend to return to. You can have multiple residencies (vacation homes, etc.), but only ONE domicile for tax purposes. Domicile is more permanent and requires intent to make that place your permanent home. This distinction is critical for state tax purposes.

The 183-day rule means you must spend MORE than half the year (183+ days) outside your current high-tax state to avoid being considered a resident for tax purposes. It's not about spending 183 days IN Florida - it's about spending fewer than 183 days in your previous state. We'll help you understand how to track and document your time properly.

While domicile changes don't automatically trigger audits, high-tax states like California and New York do scrutinize domicile changes, especially for high earners. That's why proper documentation is critical. During your consultation, we'll discuss audit-proofing strategies including maintaining a contemporaneous log, establishing strong Florida ties, and properly severing ties with your previous state.

Come with questions! It's helpful (but not required) to have: your most recent tax return, current state of residency, approximate annual income, and information about any property you own. We'll guide you through everything else during the consultation.

Most consultations last 30 minutes. We'll take as much time as needed to answer your questions thoroughly and calculate your potential tax savings.

Absolutely not. Our goal is to educate and help you make the best decision for your situation. If Florida domicile doesn't make sense for you, we'll tell you that honestly. There's zero pressure to purchase our services.

You'll speak with one of our tax professionals who specializes in state tax domicile compliance. All our consultants have extensive experience with Florida domicile establishment and state residency termination, particularly for California and New York residents.
