Moved from New Hampshire to Oregon Mid-Year: Which State Tax Returns Do You File?
Answer
Oregon taxes the second half of the year. New Hampshire has no personal income tax, so the pre-move income is untouched at state level; the Oregon part-year return picks up from the date you became a Oregon resident and prorates your deductions to that stretch.

This move takes you into the state income tax system rather than out of it. New Hampshire asked nothing of you; Oregon does, from the date your residency there begins.

Questions people actually ask
I moved from New Hampshire to Oregon mid-year. Do I have to file in both states?
Oregon taxes the second half of the year. New Hampshire has no personal income tax, so the pre-move income is untouched at state level; the Oregon part-year return picks up from the date you became a Oregon resident and prorates your deductions to that stretch.
How do I split my income between New Hampshire and Oregon?
By when you received it, measured against the date your domicile actually changed. Income received while you were a New Hampshire resident belongs on the New Hampshire return and income received afterwards on the Oregon return. Keep evidence of the move date — a lease, a closing statement, a licence issue date.
