State tax filing

Not sure what you are doing though.

 

IF you are working in NJ and live in PA...AND if it's a W-2 job?

......you should only be having PA taxes withheld by your employer, and no NJ tax return would be necessary.

 

Because of the Reciprocal tax agreement between NJ and PA, a W-2 employee living in PA and working in NJ is only liable for PA taxes.   No credit is given by PA for any NJ taxes withheld, because PA expects you to get all NJ withholding refunded, since NJ withholding should not be done in the first place.
