State tax filing

Just make sure that you are working on your NY nonresident state return first then you should get a full tax credit on your NJ resident state income tax return for all taxes paid on your NY nonresident state income tax return.

You will need to report the full wages and the 1099-MISC on both returns. (Just make sure that the income is not being double counted on each state.) You will get a tax credit in NJ for NY taxes paid on the same income.

You can look at your NJ state tax summary to make sure that your W-2 income isn't being counted twice (once as NY sourced income and then again as income from all sources on your NJ state return).

To preview NJ or NY Tax Summary:

  • TurboTax Online sign-in, click Here
  • Select "Take me to my Return"
  • Go to "Tax Tools" (on the side bar) then  "Tools"
  • Under the Tools Center, select "view tax summary"
  • Select "NJ (or NY) Tax Summary"

You will want to work on your non-resident NY state tax return first. You will then take a tax credit from your non-resident NY taxes on your resident NJ state tax return. (Please note that you will only get a tax credit for your NY taxes up to the amount of NJ taxes that would have been paid if the income was earned in NJ). 

Just follow the TurboTax guide when working on your states (remembering to do your non-resident state return first) and TurboTax will do all the calculations and credits to your resident states return
