However, the state did bill me for personal property tax for my car until I retitled the car in Florida. But, they never questioned my residency and never tried to collect any income taxes. So, make sure that you go to the DMV, get a new Florida title and registration, and notify Virginia that you no longer have a car registered in Virginia, or they will continue to bill you. I think I even had to send them a copy of my Florida car title. Good luck.

We retired here from VA five years and had the same experience- no issues.
