Get your taxes done using TurboTax

The W2 box 14 is informational and can relate to state taxes. It is not taxable to NY and "other" is a good category. It sounds like you have this figured out and are able to file now. @MGClark

 

NJ will give credit for double taxed NY income. You get credit for the lower state tax on the lowest taxable amount.

  • Each state calculates taxable income differently. 
  • Each state has its own tax rate/ system.
  • You get the lowest of both categories as a tax credit.
