I'm an NJ full year resident working primarily in NY. I had a one day business trip to CA in 2020. I understand that I'll need to file full year resident for NJ, non-resident for NY and non-resident for CA.
My employer withheld CA income taxes. However, the CA state wages on my W-2 were much higher than if I allocated my total federal wages (adjusted for CA additions / subtractions such as adding back HSA contributions) by number of days I was in CA for business.
Does CA Form 540NR Line 12 (Total California wages from W-2) need to match up with Schedule A (540NR) Part II, Line 1, Column E (CA wages earned from CA sources as a nonresident)?
Thank you for your time.
