It's possible the New York (NY) return is not required to be filed. Without knowing all of your income here is what the requirements are:
- You are a nonresident with NY state and your NY adjusted gross income Federal amount column (Form IT-203, line 31) exceeds your NY standard deduction
-
NY Standard deductions: Filing status and Standard deduction amount
(1)Single (and can be claimed as a dependent on another taxpayer's federal return) $3,100
(1)Single (and cannot be claimed as a dependent on another taxpayer's federal return)$8,000
(2)Married filing joint return $16,050
(3)Married filing separate return $8,000
(4)Head of household (with qualifying person) $11,200
(5)Qualifying widow(er) $16,050
If you have more income than what is listed for your filing status, I would make a suggestion to delete your PA return, complete your NY return and then select to complete the PA return again. The nonresident return must always be completed first, before your nonresident state return.
