Do I have to fill out a NJ non-resident form for gambling winnings if I live in NY and already reported it on my NY forms? There are mixed messages as TurboTax flags it.

It's more than $10K over the year but not in one winning.  I've never had to do this before.  Thank you.

Yes, you need to file a New Jersey non-resident tax return if you had New Jersey income and your total income from everywhere was more than $10,000 if you are Single or Married, filing separate return; $20,000 for Married, filing joint return,  Head of household or  Qualifying widow(er).

There is no place to write off my gambling losses.

TurboTax will transfer gambling winnings and losses from federal to your New Jersey return.

 

Here's what to do in TurboTax Onlinie:

 

  1. Select Federal in the left column
  2. Then Wages & Income
  3. Go to Gambling Winnings in Less Common Income, then Start
  4. On "Did you win money or other prizes in 2022?" say YES
  5. On "Did you receive a W-2G?" answer YES or NO
  6. If you did not receive Form W-2G, enter your gambling winnings on "Let's check for winnings not reported on a W-2G"
  7. On "Let us know if you had any gambling losses in 2022" enter your gambling losses

 

New Jersey allows taxpayers to  "deduct all types of gambling losses, including those
from playing the New Jersey Lottery, from their total gambling winnings during the tax period
not to exceed the total of the winnings because gambling is a “net” category of income."

 

See Gambling Winnings or Losses.
