I just submitted my Federal Return. I currently own a rental property in NY that I rented for all of 2016. Do I need to submit a NY State return too?

My pay property tax in NY and receive income that I listed on my federal return. Do I also need to file a state return with NY? Thank you!

Yes, if you don't live in NY state but you have income from your rental property in NY, you need to file a nonresident state tax return.

I started the state tax return from NY, but don't have a W-2... just the rental info that got imported from my federal return. When complete I didn't owe or receive a return. Maybe I didn't do it properly? Can someone walk me through that filing?
