State tax filing
Hi, I have question with respect to your state tax (PA) return. I live in NJ but work in NYC. The way my taxes work are pretty simple. I pay state taxes at the NY State rate and at the end of year when I do my taxes I somehow get a credit from NY for essentially the difference between NY and NJ rates. for example, NY withholds 10K, but in NJ that income tax would have been 7K, then I end up getting 3K back from NY State ( an actual check). Income tax rates are slightly higher in NY than in NJ. Given everything that's going on now and with working from home now more of an option than 8 months ago, I am entertaining a move to Doylestown PA. and I am just wondering how the state tax aspect works. From what I have read income taxes are even cheaper in PA compared to NJ and obviously NY, so going back to my example, if say I move to PA, would I get back say 4-5K from NY State at the end of the year?
