If you sell during a year where you lived part of the time in California, you would owe a pro-rated capital gains to California. Recommend you sell after 12/31/2017.
Better if you wait 2 years and convert that into a long term capital gain!
Thanks for that pointer. Most of the stocks are more than 2 years old. I will ensure to hold the recently vested ones until they qualify as long term gains on selling
1 year to hit long term capital gains in almost every scenario other than things like ESPP
Why wouldn't there be a deemed disposition to reset the cost basis when you move out of California?

You would be better off from a tax perspective if you wait.
Thanks for the info. Is it recomended to wait untill jan 2018 to sell so that even by confusion ca does not suck some money as i will have to file ca returns for living and working in ca for majority of this year?
Not sure. Speak to an accountant. If its not enough money to worry about paying one, better to be safe than sorry. Consider purchasing put options and writing covered calls do hedge in case you don't believe in the stock.
