State tax filing

You did your New York return last (after MA and NJ), right?

 

If I live in New York but work in another state, am I taxed twice?

A person who lives in one state but works in another may have tax liability in both states, but typically will receive a tax credit in their state of residence to eliminate double taxation of that income.

If you were a full-year or part-year resident of New York State and you had income sourced to and taxed by another state you may claim a nonrefundable resident credit against your New York State tax. This credit is allowable only for the portion of the tax that applies to income sourced to and taxed by the other taxing authority while you were a New York State resident.

For more information see, IT-112-R-I, Instructions for Form IT-112-R New York State Resident Credit.

Look at your IT-112-R and its instructions (the link for the instructions is just above). Can you see your NYS return?

 

Line 23 should have the state code for the other state. Line 24a should have the tax paid to the other states. Take a look at the instructions and follow them on your return.

 

If that doesn't work for you, let us know.
