Your concerns addressed
Is changing my domicile legal?
Generally yes. You’re choosing Florida as your legal home while living elsewhere—similar to many other expats and snowbirds. We guide you through common steps used to show intent and build strong Florida ties. Final residency decisions are made by your former state’s tax and other authorities.
What about my federal taxes?
In most cases, your federal obligations don’t change—you still file a U.S. tax return. Independent expat CPAs we work with can help you evaluate benefits such as the Foreign Earned Income Exclusion, Housing Exclusion, and Foreign Tax Credit, prepare and review your return, and file from abroad. SavvyNomad itself doesn’t provide legal or tax advice.
Do I need to spend a minimum number of days in Florida?
Florida law doesn’t set a specific minimum-day stay to establish domicile. What matters is completing key residency steps and maintaining strong ties to Florida—we walk you through both. However, your former state may have its own day-count or residency rules, so discuss your situation with a qualified tax advisor.
Can you handle my mail too?
Yes. We offer mail forwarding with digital scans and worldwide forwarding as an add-on service. We also provide a Florida residential street address and formatting that many banks and agencies accept, although final acceptance always depends on each institution’s policies.
