State tax filing
Remove your New York wages from New Jersey to stop TurboTax from double counting your income on your NJ return.
- In the NJ section, go to the screen Let’s Confirm Your Taxable State Wages from (Your Employer).
- Check Remove These Wages next to NY. Then Continue.
New Jersey residents working in New York are taxed by both NY and NJ on their earnings. NJ provides a credit for tax paid to NY.
New Jersey state wages are often higher than federal or New York wages because the Garden State taxes some benefits that the federal government and NY do not.
