For some context, I live in NJ and work in NY (ie, NY wages). Due to parental for me and my wife, we received 3 W2s and 1 1099 Misc related to disability and PFL. In the state wages portion, they all reference NY (and not NJ) which is what I would expect. For some reason, these amounts are being included in my NJ Gross Income and I don’t know. As I was doing the NJ return after doing the federal and NY, there was a specific screen that even mentioned the sick pay and making sure they weren’t going to get improperly taxed. So again I don’t know why these would be included in NJ Gross Income.
To answer your reply specifically, I looked at all the W2s and 1099, Box 14 was blank on all except for the 1099 which just said “GROSS AMT” followed by the $ amount.
Any additional thoughts on why these are being included in NJ income and how to fix?
Thanks for any help!
