Current through Register Vol. 41, No. 3, September 23, 2024

Section 23VAC10-110-250 - [Repealed effective 9/28/2024] Special cases in which nonresident not required to file Virginia return

A. Commuters. A nonresident who did not maintain a place of abode in Virginia at any time during the taxable year and who commuted on a daily basis to employment in Virginia from his residence outside this state is not required to file a Virginia income tax return nor is he liable for the payment of tax to Virginia provided that all of the following conditions are met:

1. His only income from Virginia sources is from salaries and wages;

2. His salaries and wages from Virginia sources are subject to taxation by his state of residence;

3. Such taxpayer's state of residence imposes an income tax substantially similar to Virginia's, i.e., a net income tax;

4. The tax laws of the taxpayer's state of residence allow a credit against the tax liability of a Virginia resident to such state which is substantially similar to that accorded by Virginia as defined in 23VAC10-110-220 through 23VAC10-110-222; and

5. The tax laws of the taxpayer's state of residence accord Virginia residents commuting to work in such state on a daily basis the same relief from filing a return as provided herein for nonresidents of Virginia.

As of the adoption date of these regulations, residents of Kentucky, Maryland, West Virginia and the District of Columbia may qualify for a filing exclusion under the provisions of this section. Residents of these states who have Virginia income tax withheld on salary and wages earned in Virginia and who would otherwise qualify for the filing exclusion may obtain a refund of Virginia tax withheld by filing Form 763S, Special Nonresident Claim for Individual Income Tax.

B. Reciprocal agreements. The Department of Taxation may enter into reciprocal agreements with other states to relieve residents of such state from filing a return or paying tax to Virginia on compensation paid herein. Under such reciprocal agreements, Virginia residents will similarly be relieved from filing and payment requirements in the reciprocating state. For taxable years beginning on and after January 1, 1982, such an agreement is in effect with Pennsylvania.
