Question

What happens to California SDI if I file partial residency

Hi Community!!

 

I am filing a partial residency in California for 2021, 33 days in total, as I moved out of state in early Feb. I know this affects the amount of state taxes I pay ( or are returned to me). I am collecting Unemployment and soon Paid Family Leave through California and I want to make sure that declaring partial residency does not affect my Unemployment or PFL status. Basically want to make sure I am not unintentionally changing my SDI contribution.

 

Thanks!!

Your SDI contribution is based on your California wages. Collecting unemployment and paid family leave will not impact your SDI contribution because you are no longer contributing to SDI.

 

Your eligibility and amount of unemployment and PFL is based on your past earnings. This amounts will not change.

Thanks. As a follow up, if I am filing a partial residency in CA ( 33 days) but worked a CA based job for approx 6 months affect or alter my CA SDI tax after that fact? I want to make sure I am not negitively affect my current UI claim and future PFL claim by reducing the amount of money I am paying into SDI.

 

Thanks.

I’m understanding your question. If you work, your will either be ineligible to collect unemployment or your weekly benefit will be reduced during the week you work.

 

You can use the Unemployment Benefits calculator to estimate your benefits.
