Lived and worked in MA for half of 2021 moved to PA and worked Remotely for MA employer
Hi, I am a little late to the game but having some questions I hope the community can help!
I lived and worked in MA for half of 2021 moved to PA and worked removed for the same employer in MA. I have 3 pages of W2s, Federal, State for MA, State for PA, and what I presume to be local for PA.
I have a couple of questions, Since I lived and worked in MA for half the year I presume I have to file for MA and I assume I should be using the value in Box 16 for MA wages. But do I not have to complete a R/NR because I lived and worked in PA and have PA wages for that time period? My employer is incorporated in PA so I guess its technically a PA employer?
When I total both state income tax (box 17 for PA and MA) it equals the total in box 17 under Total State. OK - perfect.
When I total Box 16 for both states its more that my Box 1wages. Weird, shouldn't they total the same? If I did have to fill out Non Resident wages for MA, what would I use - would it be my Box 1 wages?
