Make sure that they still withhold NY taxes on the bonus so you are not in trouble and I hate to also mention that NY uses the total annual income figure to calculate the non resident taxes ... not fair but that is what it is.
NY is not going to tax all the person's Florida income, but it will use the total income to determine things like the tax bracket and applicability of the standard deduction and personal exemption. For example, if the bonus is $1000, and you had no other income, it would not be taxed in NY because it is less than the personal exemption. However, if your income from other states would put you in a certain NY tax bracket, then the bonus will be taxed at that rate.
