Get your taxes done using TurboTax

New York state requires employers to report total wages for the whole year in W-2 Box 16 so you’ll see 100% of your actual earnings there. It’s not your actual NY wage. That’s why TurboTax has a Wage Allocation section.

 

Contact your employer. If you had PTO or stock vesting that was paid or recognized in 2022 then some of your income may be taxed by both NY and California. If that’s the case, you would allocate your NY wages and claim a credit on the CA return for any tax paid to NY.

 

If you had no NY source income, you can allocate $0 wages or days worked to NY and get back all your NY withholding.
