As a way of background, New York state income tax rates are 4%, 4.5%, 5.25%, 5.9%, 5.97%, 6.33%, 6.85%, 9.65%, 10.3% and 10.9%. New York state income tax brackets and income tax rates depend on taxable income and filing status. Also, residency status determines what’s taxable.
As a resident, your daughter will pay state tax (and city tax if a New York City or Yonkers resident) on all income no matter where it is earned. As a nonresident, your daughter will only pay tax on New York source income, which includes earnings from work performed in New York State, and income from real property located in the state. Based on what you have stated, it does not appear that your daughter received NY source income while a non-resident of NY, and therefore, income of this type does not appear to be an issue.
While we do not know where in NY your daughter lived, as a non-resident, your daughter was not liable for New York City personal income tax, and would not be subject to the city of Yonkers tax if your daughter had no income derived from the city of Yonkers.
Essentially, what your daughter's NY part-year resident tax return should reflect is that all income received while a NY part-year resident, plus income from New York sources while a nonresident, has been taxed. If it shows something different than that, you can provide additional details regarding the income amounts and how such amounts were entered into TurboTax. Additionally, it is important to enter residency dates into TurboTax that reflect the actual part-year residency period for NY.
