Thanks DanielV01,
You are correct. There is a section with NY as well. There are six W2's. The first two have "total state" for box 15 and then a state income tax in box 17 (box 16, 18, 19, and 20 are blank). The last two W2s list NY in box 15, a state wages in box 16, and a state income tax in box 17 (this number matches the "total state" income tax in box 17 from the first two W2s).
This all makes sense to me. It is the middle two W2s that are confusing me now. The middle two W2s list NJ in box 15 and a blank box 17 (which I guess is since I only paid income tax to NY and this will be credited to my NJ income tax after filing?). In these middle two W2s, there is an amount in box 16 that does not match box 16 in the last two W2s with NY listed. I don't understand where this number in NJ box 16 came from and if I need to list both the NY box 16 and NJ box 16 when entering the information.
