Need help with filing NY state tax. I am receiving this error when reviewing NY state taxes.

Wages, Salaries, Etc., Col D : 4250

Background - filing for my daughter -

Lives in Georgia - permanent residence

She worked in NY for one semester after graduating college - she earned $4250 from 2 gigs receiving two 1099 NEC forms

She came home to GA and worked during the summer and received a W-2 totaling $3132.90. This number 3133 is part of the error message above.

Since she had no taxes taken out for the $4250 work in NY it shows she owes $569 in fed

She actually receives $32 in GA taxes

NY is showing she owes $191

This shouldn't be hard but it's really perplexing me. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

For some reason I am getting this error message and I can't figure out how to clear this up. Is this an error in the federal that is flowing into the NY state or is it the way that I am filling out the NY?

The income reported on Forms 1099-NEC is not wages, it is self-employment income which you should have reported on Schedule C - Self-Employment in the federal return. The New York portion of the $3,133 "Wages, Salaries, Etc," is $0.00. As you go through the New York non-resident return in TurboTax there is a screen that asks "Did you have any New York State Wages?" - Answer No. Next you will see "Your Business and Farm Summary". You click on edit to open the screen where you will enter the net income from your daughter's self-employment income.

Your daughter will receive a credit for tax paid to another state on her Georgia tax return. In order for the credit to calculate correctly you need to prepare the New York non-resident return first and then the Georgia resident return. Delete the Georgia return and then finish the New York return. After the New York return is finished add the Georgia return back to the return.
