State tax filing
Can you clarify your exact situation? Different states have different rules. Also, many of these responses are over a year old. Many states are lifting temporary tax laws that were in place while a state of emergency was in effect for that particular state, meaning that your income can be treated differently for the first part of the year than for the second part of the year.
If you were a NY resident working for a NJ employer for 2021, then you would report income as @ErnieS0 instructed above if you never physically worked in NJ.
@ne1919 As long as you are not physically working in NJ and with the temporary pandemic rules no longer in place, they should no longer be withholding NJ income tax. Hopefully, before you have to file next year's taxes, they will realize the error of their ways. You can request a complete refund of NJ taxes withheld next year, but NJ may require an explanation from the employer of why they were withheld in the first place.
