State tax filing

New York State taxes telecommuters, UNLESS you are working in Delaware because your employer wants you to ("for the employer's convenience"). Usually this is not the case - you are working in Delaware because that's where you lived at the time you got the job and you stayed there.

 

If so, then you file a nonresident return in New York and a resident return in Delaware.

 

Do the New York data entry first, then the Delaware. New York City taxes will be calculated in the New York State return.

 

TurboTax will calculate the total New York taxes (State and City), and apply the NY withholdings to it.

 

Then the New York tax will be brought back to Delaware as a tax credit on line 10 on the Delaware form 200-01.
