State tax filing

Yes. New York requires employers to report as New York state wages total wages, whether they are NY wages or not.

 

Case One: You lived and worked in Georgia—and were NOT telecommuting to the NY office.

In this case, file part-year tax returns for Georgia and New York and a nonresident New Jersey return.

  • GA income - $140,978.39
  • NY income - $22,209.25 ($163,978.39 - $140,978.39)
  • NJ income - $22,428.42 (NJ taxes some benefits that NY and GA do not.

If you file part-year returns, you would only get an other state tax credit on the NY return for tax paid to NJ.

 

Case Two: You continued teleworking to a NY office (and this doesn’t appear to be the case because GA tax is being withheld).

 

File a part-year NY return but report all your income. NY resident income will be $22,209.25. NY non-resident income will be $140,978.39. You will see separate placed in TurboTax New York to enter both.

 

File a nonresident NJ return as above and a part-year GA return, claiming a tax credit for NY tax.
