New house has a home office. Working on ordering the office furniture with the expectation I will be home permanently at least 80% Of the time

Technically you earned it in LA.
That being said, if you and your employer stfu, there is zero chance anything happens.

Thais exactly what I did. The work from home isn’t 100% permanent yet, but it is for me! One way or another, I ain’t going back.

I’ll probably be doing the same thing in 4-5 years

I don’t get how this is possible really
Say you move to Alabama and you work in Georgia
Something has to come up, even if you don’t change your information on the companies intranet
But even if all documents are easy to get on your companies intranet, they still mail things to physical addresses (shareholder information, 401k documents, tax documents etc)

It's a calculated risk, that's for sure.
At any point, things could swing back the other way and you'd potentially be out of a job. It only takes one leadership change.
You could pick an area that offered other opportunities to minimize the risk.
I doubt it will ever swing back! While I'm not sure I'd enjoy working from home every day companies are saving millions by not having huge offices.
Also, your company is very attractive to job seekers and most of all your talent pool is not limited by your geographic region. The Employee saves money on clothes, gas, vehicle maintenance, depreciation, food, etc.
It really is a win/win for everyone in the company..
I do know if I was in commercial real estate I'd be looking hard a career change. Talk about going to tank.

I've been working from home for four years.
I have one kid in the 8th grade, I've stayed put to keep him in the school district he grew up in where he knows all the kids and is comfortable.
Whatever direction he goes after high school will determine my move.
I'm looking to get on a lake somewhere with a golf course.
Texas or North Louisina

We are work from home at my job until March and there is a war right now between HR and high level employees over this.
HR says no, you have to stay where your location is based. I.E. if your office is in Denver you have to stay in Denver. But higher ups in the company like VPs are saying frick that, if we are remote we should be able to work where we want. My VP is defying HR and living at his lakehouse in Indiana right now.
What drives people crazy is HR is saying you have to stay put, but people don't know what that encompasses. Is there a certain radius you have to stay within? HR won't clarify.
It's not actually being enforced, and something tells me HR is just doing it to scare people so there aren't hordes of people moving which could create a mess once we get back to work. I have employees of my own who are living at home hours away from our home site.
Is there a more worthless organization in any organization than HR?

Don’t think that’s true at all Your company is in GA and you live in NC You’re paying both
Yes and no. It depends on how your job is classified. I'm considered remote employed as a sales rep and I pay taxes for the state in which I live, not where my company is based.
In my last non-WFH job, our GM lived in Alabama and commuted to GA to the plant every day. He paid GA state income taxes. He filed AL state income taxes and got credit for every dollar he paid in GA state income taxes, which made it a wash in the end. In fact, I think he got money back from AL as their tax rate was lower than GA.

That’s a pretty sweet situation if you can make it work with ease.
The fact that you literally choose any city to remotely work from is pretty amazing

I asked one of our remote employees out of curiosity and she doesn't have to pay Louisiana state taxes.

Does your employer know you left the state yet?

Man, this is going to get ugly.
If you can do your job from home, it can be done from Bangalore.
Trust me, I was in the IT field during the outsourcing bonanza. Many good programmers thought they were irreplaceable, but they were dead wrong.
I changed fields to a job where I’m essential to be in everyday. I enjoy the security.

IANACPA, but that statement from the Dept of Revenue seems unambiguous that if the income has a Louisiana source, you owe Louisiana a pound of flesh.
I'm sure that there are rules about companies that are based in Louisiana, but have offices in the state you live and work in. That's way above my pay grade to figure out, though.
I'm dealing with this now. I moved in August to a different state and I don't want to get into too many details, but I'm not exactly being overly visible about my move. Not lying about it, but not announcing it in the monthly newsletter either. So now, do I start paying state taxes for the new state or old state after move? I have to do something or else I'll have to lie to the IRS at the end of the year, which I'm definitely NOT going to do.
HR has an idea of why I'm asking and lucky for me, the state I moved to does not have an income tax where the state I moved FROM does (Louisiana), so I figure the mistake to make is to keep paying the state taxes so whatever I do, it's not for my own benefit. By that doesn't seem real pleasant either. Ideally, I'll start a new job here in this state soon and it'll be a moot point but that is optimistic hope, apparently.

We were always going to make the move, but our timing couldn’t have been better. We were lucky that we sold our place when we did.

Yea that’s a move I’m making when we have kids and are in our 30s
Hopefully by that time so I’ll be away from the sell aide and working on the buy side
Don’t really feel the need to have a house and that commute at this point of my life
