In which state did I "earn" my wages and what part of my income is "attributed" to my remote work state?
Hello,
I have a couple questions that fit together regarding living in one state and working remotely in another. I appreciate any help in advance. For context, i live in WI and work remotely in NJ. I have also posted snips for extra context
My questions are:
1) There are two different state wages listed on my W2. My WI wages are the same as my Federal so that is easy enough to understand but my NJ state wages are exactly half of of my federal/WI. No idea why that is. But then TT asks me to "remove the wages for the state line that is a duplicate." Is NJ a duplicate or WI? I'm assuming NJ because it is half of WI but am unsure. That is question 1. Which one do i say to remove? The amount i keep ends up filling in my NJ non-resident form "wages" line.
2) No matter which one i pick, TT then asks me if i earned all of those wages in NJ. I don't know the correct answer. My company is there but I am never there. Does that mean I earned 100% or 0% from there?
Thank you in advance!
