State tax filing

Thanks, @MarilynG1!

 

I was under the impression that because I lived for more than six months in NJ, I was considered a resident of that state.

 

Can you explain what it means to allocate one's income?

 

Luckily I have completed my NJ state return but forgot to file it. So I won't need to amend it, I can just start over.

 

Does this mean I also have to pay NYC taxes for the allocated amount?

 

Thanks again!
