Do I pay NYS tax if I received signing bonus a year before the new job start
I lived in Miami for all of 2025. I received a sign‑on bonus for a new job in April 2025, but I won’t actually start the job until October 2026. The company has offices nationwide, and the contract does not specify the location. However, I plan to join their New York office once I begin working.
Their payroll system listed my work location as New York and withheld New York State tax from my signing bonus. Am I eligible for a refund?
