Moving a trust over state lines can offer tax savings and other benefits - Crawford Ellenbogen

If a trust is subject to high state income taxes, you may be able to change its residence to a state with low or no income taxes.

Typically, states make this determination based on factors such as the grantor’s home state, the location of the trust’s assets, the state where the trust is administered and the states where the trust’s beneficiaries reside.
