State tax filing

TurboTax is saying your New York and New York City wages must match on the NYC part-year resident form (IT-360.1).

 

In your example, there is some income overlap. 

 

NY Income: $100,000 - $30,000 = $70,000

NYC income: $80,000

 

You can adjust your NY income to $80,000 or adjust your NYC income down. 

 

If you adjust your income upwards, then it looks like $10,000 is being taxed by both Virginia and NY since $80,000 (NYC) + $30,000 (VA) = $130,000. That should not happen if you are part-year.

 

If you adjust NYC down, it will not match your W-2. NY may question that. If you have pay stubs or other documents, it’s fine to adjust down. You just may have to respond to a tax notice and tell them everything is correct.
