W-2 has multiple states, even though I only worked in one. Do I need to enter it all?
Despite leaving the company in 2023 and only having residual garden leave pay in 2024, my W-2 has 3 pages: one for CT where I live, and 2 for other states I did not work / live in. So I have 3 pages for boxes 15-17 with different amounts in line 16 and 17 for each state.
Do I need to "add another state" and add these amounts in? And what impact will that have on my taxes? I won't be paying extra tax on this, i.e. entering in wages 3 times in box 16 right?
For context, the CT state tax (box 17) is $300 but the NY (where I don't live and didn't work) has $50K. And then a 3rd state lists $1200.
