I lived in NY State for all of 2020, but in NYC for only 5 of those months. I don't know what to do about "Allocate Federal Adjustments to Income"

[roberthohn5392]

Specifically, it says "you must allocate your federal adjustments to income of $2571" based on time you spent in NYC." It then goes on to say that the "federal adjustments below must equal $2571." Do I just put $1071 under "NYC Resident Portion," and then the remaining $1500 under "Total Federal Adjustments?"

Yes. Your New York City allocation is correct. NYC has its own resident income tax separate from New York state income tax. Allocate 5/12s or $1,071 under NYC Resident Period. Total federal adjustments should equal $2,571.
