I live in NJ, but work in NY so where does my dividend, interest and capital losses/gains get allocated?
In my non-resident NY form there is a section for: "Nonresident other allocations". In it I have my dividend, interest, and capital losses. It's asking to set a "New York Source Portion". Should I set all of these to 0 and then it'll get automatically allocated to New Jersey which is where I lived?
Also, it asked "Allocated Income based on Business". I put Yes and gave the reason: "RESIDE IN NJ, SO DIVIDEND, INTEREST, & CAPITAL GAINS/LOSS BEING ALLOCATED THERE". Is this valid?

If you worked in NY all year, all your wages were earned in New York state. You will get a credit in NJ for taxes withheld in NY so you won't be double taxed. Nothing else is taxable to NY since you are a New Jersey resident.
Therefore, allocate Zero for dividends, interest, etc since all should be sourced to NJ.
