Hello, I currently live in NY but I work in NJ. Would I remove NJ or NY wages when having to choose to remove wages that are a duplicate? Ref. box 16.

Check "Remove These Wages" for each state wage line that is a duplicate. Typically, New Jersey wages should be higher than federal wages because New Jersey does not allow the same federal deductions.

State ID State Wage Amount (box 16) Remove These Wages NY

                                                                                                  NJ

I have to choose NY or NJ to remove.

Be sure to complete your non-resident NJ return before you do your home state NY return.

On your NJ return, click to remove the NY wages.  Only the NJ wages are taxable by NJ.
