California taxes a part‑year resident on (1) all income from all sources while a resident and (2) California‑source income while a nonresident.
Xavier was resident 7/1–12/31 (6 months). Assuming wages were earned evenly through the year:
- California wages: $45,000 — all taxable by CA (CA‑source income, taxed both while nonresident and while resident).
- Montana wages: $50,000 — only the portion earned while a CA resident is taxable: 6/12 × $50,000 = $25,000.
Total CA‑taxable wages = $45,000 + $25,000 = $70,000.
(If actual pay‑period dates differ, allocate by the exact periods earned rather than prorating.)
