I have an unusual situation for 2020. My husband received a lump sum separation payment for an employer for which he left in mid 2019. On the NY return, I had to calculate 4 years of previous taxes starting in 2016 on form IT-203F to get an average (?) taxable amount for NYS. He did not live nor work in NY at all in 2020.
Do I still need to calculate the same tax credit on the credit for out of state taxes form in NJ? If so, what amount do I use. The instructions refer to the amount showing on the IT-203 for NY for taxable income. Turbo Tax picks up that number, which is about 60% of the amount he actually received in that lump sum payment.
Thank you.
