Considering your updated New Jersey sourced income, then you would have to file a New Jersey part-year resident return. In addition, part-year residents must have coverage or qualify for an exemption for each month of their New Jersey residency. If you or anyone in your tax household did not have the required coverage and does not qualify for an exemption, you owe a shared responsibility payment.
If you were a full-year resident, and your New Jersey Gross income on line 29 was $20,000 or less ($10,000 if your filing status is single or married filing separate return), you would not owe a shared responsibility payment. However, for part-year residents, your income for the entire year, not just the period of NJ residency, is used to determine whether you will owe a shared responsibility payment.
There are exemptions to the health mandate. Please see the NJ Health Insurance Mandate Coverage Exemptions to determine if you would qualify for any of the listed exemptions.
