There are a bunch of reasons why it might matter. Tax laws will be the biggest reason, and the one that applies to pretty much everyone.
Labor laws, contractual restrictions, import/export laws, and national security can also play a role, depending on the job.
I briefly considered moving to Puerto Rico a while back, and because of the customer contracts that govern some of my work, I couldn't. The contracts require the work be done by people in the U.S., and while PR is part of the U.S., due to labor and tax laws, my company (and maybe the contracts?) doesn't see it that way.
The only way for me to make the move was to convert from a U.S. employee to non-U.S., which requires being terminated and rehired (and management didn't seem willing to do that), and my work on those contracts would have to stop.
And that restriction would apply if I wanted to vacation in PR. I could probably do a brief trip with prior approval, which would probably only be granted under certain circumstances, but an extended stay would be out of the question, and working from there without approval would land me in hot water.
A woman named Patricia Krentcil says ICE harassed her & asked whether she was a U.S. citizen because of her dark tan.

“Because I was so tan, they were about to handcuff me… and take me away, God knows where,”
Do you believe her? 🤔
