A state with income tax will do everything possible to claim you
unless you go through a total "divorce" proceeding with them. That
means no traceable property ownership, no registered vehicles or
boats, no kids in school, no source of income, no financial accounts,
no drivers license, no utility bills, etc. They may even try to claim
your pension if you retire to another state, better to move first,
then retire.


They can not get yout pension. California tried to get taxes on pensions
earned in Calif, after the person moved. Court said: Nope!

It's possible that New Jersey has not yet heard of that decision. I
just recently talked to someone that retired from NJ to Florida and NJ
was trying to tax his pension income since that's where it was
"earned" and being paid from.


Have him check the California decisions. Buddy moved to Reno area and Calif
was trying to tax his Carpenters pension.
