Camp Pendleton and smog test Carven

The flight of tax paying residents out of Ca is at a all time high. We are looking at other states. Arizona, NM, TX and NV all have new housing developments. 7 outside of Tuscon and Phoenix. Talking with them, they claim the majority of buyers are from Ca. Sacramento is so concerned that they are talking about passing "scratch back" legislation. Their idea is, have those that leave, pay tax's or fee's back to Ca for services they received while in Ca for a period of time after they move. There is no limit to their socialist idea's. 1100 new legislative rules and regulations passed in 2017.

I'd like to see this one make it to the courtroom. I can't imagine how they would even enforce this. Hell, they won't tell ICE where illegals are, but they will tell the California Franchise Tax Board where you moved out of the State. CALIFORNICATE THIS, Gov'ner Brown:

I'd like to see this one make it to the courtroom. I can't imagine how they would even enforce this.

The latest SCOTUS ruling in the online sales tax case has made it possible for States to exercise sovereign control over people who do not live there. So, by extension, this is certainly possible.

They're like a swarm of locusts, devouring everything that is good and wholesome in one area before moving onto greener pastures. They never stop to consider that their own lifestyles and beliefs might be the problem. I've been watching over the past decade and now it seems their sights are set on Texas.

Guilty as charged... But I am layin' roots in the Lonestar state and wish I had done it 20 years ago.

Damn I am confused. Why are you registering the vehicle in Ca. You are active military on temp assignment. I "suspect" that you may have an exemption from the Ca registration and smog BS. If so, you keep your Az registration current. It is well worth your time to dig into this and "know" what you must or do not have to do. Your base legal officer should be able to help. Hoping you are exempt.

There are literally millions of CA residents who register out of state (AZ and OR in particular) just to avoid the taxes. If the state ever could enforce this, they'd probably have a budget surplus, LOL.

Ramaz, go to Ca.gov. Download form REG 5046. NRM Nonresident military license fee exemption. "You qualify for this exemption if your duty station is located in California and your vehicle not used in a trade or business"
I only see one issue. Your window tinting. PC Bay Area is the worst. Can issue a correction ticket if your window tinting is to dark. Easy fix. You do not want to be a "Ca resident"

Thank you

I'm laughing now at the comments about this state. I spent enough time away to have full residency in another state and never really wanted to move back. Had we not gotten our house for the price we did I'd already be gone. As for people leaving en masse, yup. If I wasn't holding out for the property to reach a specific value I would have already forced the wife to give in and let us move. People came here en masse to make it big and now that the tech-lash is looming they're all leaving again. <I miss Oregon and Washington.>
