Hello,
My Wife lives in NJ but works in NY State. She received a W2 from each state. The NY W2 is the only one that includes a balance in line 17 for State income tax. However, both NY and NJ W2's both include a balance for line 16 State wages. The residing NJ line 16 wages are larger than the work state NY line 16 wages. When filling out Turbo Tax, which state and which amount should the inputted? Is the correct number the larger NJ amount, where we reside? The state selected for line 16 (even if it's the same value) seems to make a big difference in the result.
Thank You,
