Filling out NJ 1040NR but TTAX is requiring County Code but form states for RESIDENTS ONLY.

[jdegeorge]

Hi

I moved out of NJ in March 2025, so I'm filling out the NJ 1040NR. In checking the return, TTAX shows error that I didn't enter the County/Municipality Code on the NJ Information Worksheet, but the form clearly says only NJ RESIDENTS need fill in. What do I do?

If you lived in New Jersey for part of 2025, you should file a part-year NJ tax return (Form NJ 1040) and indicate the time you lived in NJ in 2025 and the income you received while living there.

For the NJ county/municipality: you would choose the one that applied while living in NJ.

Here is information on filing a NJ part-year resident tax return.
