w-2 summary and refund not updating to reflect NY state tax allocation percentage?
I lived in NY but worked remotely for a job outside of the sate for a couple of months this year before moving to the new location. As such, I need to allocate how many days/what percentage of my gross income was earned while in NY for my state taxes. I've seen a lot of questions regarding this process on here, and I believe I understand it, however whenever I attempt to allocate the wages (via percentage), my refund doesn't update, nor does the "New York Wages" page after the allocation forms are completed. It simply remains as showing "Total Wages" being equal to "Wages for New York". If I do it via days, the "Wages for New York" value DOES change, however the "Let's Review Your New York Numbers" still displays the unallocated income as "Amount Taxed by New York".
Even when I swap back and forth between 100% and 1% allocation, the refund doesn't seem to update. Is there a way to confirm that my allocation is being taken into account for the final calculation? My NY state refund is dramatically lower than usual (and I had no exemptions), so this makes me suspicious that something may not be getting tallied correctly.
Thanks for any insights!
