I received an Award from NYS but live in Florida. Do I have to pay tax and file in NYS?

It depends on the amount of the award. Generally, you must file an IT-203, Nonresident and Part-Year Resident Income Tax Return, if you get income from a New York source and it is greater than your New York Standard Deduction.

The Standard Deduction amounts for New York are based on your filing status. They are:

Single and claimed as a dependent on someone else's return: $3,100
Single and not claimed as a dependent on someone else's return: $8,000
Married filing jointly: $16,050
Married filing separately: $8,000
Head of household: $11,200
Qualifying widow(er): $16,050
