Moving out of Illinois involves specific considerations. Here’s what you need to know based on our 8 years of interstate experience.
Illinois has high state income taxes (4.95%) and some of the highest property taxes in the nation. Many destination states offer significant tax savings. States like Florida, Texas, and Tennessee have no income tax, potentially saving thousands annually.
Many Illinoisans move to escape harsh winters. If relocating to warmer climates, consider timing your move during off-season months, what winter items to keep or donate, and how climate change might affect your health and lifestyle.
Illinois vehicles must meet your destination state’s inspection and emission standards. Some states require immediate registration, others allow 30+ days. We coordinate with auto transport services and can recommend certified inspection stations in your destination state.
Illinois professionals (doctors, lawyers, teachers, real estate agents) must research reciprocity agreements and transfer requirements. Some states require additional testing or continuing education. We recommend starting this process 3-6 months before your move.
Illinois, especially Chicago area, has high living costs. Most destination states offer significant savings on housing, utilities, and everyday expenses. However, factor in potential salary adjustments and different tax structures when budgeting for your move.
To establish residency in your new state, you’ll need to change voter registration, driver’s license, bank accounts, and insurance policies. Some states have specific requirements for residency establishment. We provide comprehensive checklists for each destination state.
