I talked to my CPA and he has seen, and continues to see, a migration of people and commerce out of the state.  Southern Pennsylvania and the WVA panhandle are two of the fastest growing areas in the entire Mid-Atlantic.  With this new 3 percent tax on IT services Maryland decided to tax the most mobile service in the state.  While companies like comcast and Verizon ae stuck others like myself and many others can perfectly move outside of the state where Maryland cannot tax them.  I have one more year I have to stay in the state…after that my options expand greatly.  I will be talking with my daughter about moving to either southern Pennsylvania or West Virginia…I am not sure Northern Virginia is a good option for me or my business..but the other two are strong contenders.  I will be researching southern Pennsylvania and western West Virginia intensely.  Both options leave my close to my clients and allow me to avoid the ever growing tax burden Maryland presents.  I will also regain access to my 2nd amendment rights as well by relocating.  It’s going to be in interesting time…but my youngest will still be close to her friends..and will be driving soon so she will stay in contact with her friends….:)
