Correct. And, a Federal law passed in 1996 prohibits states from taxing the retirement income of residents who move out of the state. Prior to that law, California had an aggressive enforcement effort to tax IRA withdrawals made by former California residents under the theory that they received a state tax "deferral" when they made the IRA deposits.
