I own 3 rental properties in NY, but I live in PA. Do I have to file a state tax return in NY? Do I have to fill out the IT-203-A form? Do I have to pay state tax twice?

Yes. Since you have NY located rental properties, you will need to file an NY nonresident state income tax return (Form IT-203-A) to report your rental income and expenses related to these NY located rental properties.

You will also need to report the NY sourced rental income and expenses on your PA resident state income tax return. However, you will get a state tax credit in PA for any NY state taxes paid on NY sourced income that is being taxes in both NY and PA.

Just follow the TurboTax guide when working on your states (remembering to do your nonresident state return first) and TurboTax will do all the calculations and credits to your resident states return.
