Tax question: Working and living in different states

Question for the tax experts…. If someone works remotely while living in Texas, but the company is located in California, do they pay California state income taxes?

No.
edit: assuming you permanently live in Texas and aren't just temporarily here.

You pay where you live.
There might be local employment taxes. 1-2% or so.

Within 5-10 years, I imagine California is going to try to tax remote workers in other states who never physically travel into California.

NY already does this

Unless you're physically working out of town
I've had to file 4 or more W-2 forms multiple times while working for the same company
Hence why I no longer work there

I agree. As it stands now, you pay based upon where you are when you do the work. SFP is right, though. States will start revising their codes.

Yep. I work in 4 states. 2 of them have income tax and I have to keep track and report when I’m in each state.

Do they provide a tax credit to the state they are working in or are they double taxed?

If your permanent residence is in Texas - you go by Texas tax laws.
The only time it gets complicated is if your permanent residence is in one state, but you perform work in other states. Some states (like California) make you pay state taxes if your residence is Cali but you are working temporarily in another state. In that instance, you pay whatever state taxes to where the work is being done and then California will ask for the residual tax percentage if the Cali tax is higher than the state where the work is being performed (which it usually is)

When I left Ca they tried to tax me for that year and the year after.
When I moved to CA in August they tried to tax me for a whole year.
That’s just the way they do it.

Do your pay stubs have CA tax withheld each week/bi-weekly/monthly?

Should be a tax credit - though I physically live in Texas so I just get screwed.

they've been trying to do just that for at least thirty years

You're taxed where you are during work. You'd have to pay CA taxes when/if you work from your company's offices, but if your arse is in TX, your taxes are in TX.
