I live in NJ. I am an employee of a NY company as a consultant. My consulting assignment is at a company located in NJ. I didn't set foot in New York in 2020.
If COVID had not happened, I would have worked at my assignment site in NJ 100% of the time.
I should pay no NY taxes.
I paid in to NY taxes for part of the year, but my wages are showing 100% in NY, and about 80% in NJ.
The way I see it, I should get what I paid in to NY back, get no credit for that in NJ, and pay only NJ state income tax (in addition to Federal, of course).
On the relevant page in Turbo Tax (the "Work Days Outside of New York" page) is the statement "If you telecommuted to your job from a location outside the state, those days will still count as New York working days unless certain specific conditions are met."
I believe I meet those conditions, go to "Forms" to fill in as much of this information as I can.
But then when I'm done, New York is shown refunding me more than was withheld by New York AND New Jersey.
That's not right.
HELP!
