New Mexico State Tax return
I retired from the State of California end of November 2020, and moved to New Mexico on Jan. 1, 2021. I got paid for my unused vacation in 2021 and therefore received a W-2 from the State where federal and CA state taxes were withheld, therefore I filed a Nonresident CA tax return. Since I have been receiving pension from CalPERS (California Retirement System) and Social Security starting in 2021, I should be reporting these income in the NM state tax return, correct? When I responded on the residency status question in the NM tax return on Turbo Tax, as a NM resident, it showed an amount that I owe since no state taxes were withheld from these 2 sources of income. However, when I responded as a first-year resident (which we were since we moved here permanently in 2021), it showed we don't own any taxes. I'm conflicted which is the correct residency status response.
