Not really sure what you may be looking for but as far as the tax return, we sold our NY home in October 2018 and moved in with relatives in NJ until we closed on our Florida home just prior to the new year. I was still employed by NYC government until July 2019. We filed a NY return for 2018 and a partial year resident for 2019. Have not heard anything from NYS regarding an audit. However, I did hear Emperor Cuomo has said about auditing anyone who loves out of NYS for the prior 10 years, not sure that would be constitutional.

As far as paperwork in FL, just bring your NY license to FL and they will give you a FL license in about 20 minutes. For Florida homestead rebate on your taxes you can not own a home anywhere else and you must be a FL resident for a full year (Jan 1) prior to being eligible to receiving the homestead. So close on your home in December not January otherwise you have to wait another full year.
