I worked for a company in NY but lived in NJ.  taxes were taken out for both and appear on this line.  Should one be deleted.  It makes a$400 different in state return.

If you live in New Jersey and work in New York, and are at the "Let's Confirm Your Taxable State Wages" part of the program, check to remove the NY wages or they will be counted twice.

Also, make sure you complete the NY tax return, (non-resident return) before you complete your NJ return, so that NJ gives you credit for taxes paid to NY.
