I have a self facing window which my plants were directly in. So I moved them away from that window about two weeks ago and watered these plants about two weeks ago. I noticed a week after the move they started to get a little yellow, so I moved them closer to the window thinking that they miss the light. Now they are starting to get more yellow. Mind you I’ve had these plants for about two-three years so I’m not sure if these are just old leaves leaves dying off off

Might be an over watering issues moreso than a moving issue. Are you letting your sansevieria plants completely dry out before watering again? Have you repotted any into new soil sign you've had them?

I have repotted them probably once since I’ve had them. I don’t think (at least the 2 on the right) have been overwatered because I was 2ish months late on watering them
