Hi De,

I have clients in California and non-California clients who are doing business in California. Obviously, you have to file a California return if you are a resident or earn California-sourced income, BUT if neither are applicable to you, then you have no income tax filing requirement there. Now, I realize this proposed tax is a "wealth tax," rather than an income tax, BUT if you do NOT have current residency, NO California-sourced income, and NO property located in California (real estate, tangible personal property, cash, etc.), then you should have no nexus that would create a tax responsibility with the State of California. Also, practically speaking, California is going to find it VERY difficult to go after former residents who have completely divested and disassociated themselves from the State of California - because they now live outside of California jurisdiction and have no property inside the state that they can go after. For those wealthy individuals who have not yet completely divested and disassociated themselves from California, this proposed "wealth tax" should give them the impetus to do so, forthwith. Once that is accomplished, you should be able to tell California to stuff it where the sun don't shine.

Re: “If a person has moved out of California, divested themselves of any and all California property in prior years, has no ongoing California-source income, and has not been present inside California for 183 or more days during the tax year”
That would be me.

I left CA a long time ago, 2005. I sold my property. I closed my bank accounts. Affairs related to my parents' estate finished some time back. All I've got in California now is a sister and a son.
