Post was marked as spam, but it was a genuine inquiry. The reply originally posted correctly and was only about 30 minutes, but upon review I realized that one of the html links was incorrect (linked to Form IT-203 rather than the instructions for Form IT-203). Please return this post to the comments section to allow others to respond to it accordingly.

The situation is less clear, however, for nonresidents that reside & work <u>wholly without</u> the State for the entire year (meaning 0 days per year within NYS). Could anyone provide more insight on the tax requirements for this situation? The rules set forth in <a href="https://govt.westlaw.com/nycrr/Document/I50e80e10cd1711dda432a117e6e0f345?viewType=FullText&orig...)" target="_blank" rel="noopener">20 NYCRR 132.4(b)</a> seem to indicate that income earned by a nonresident completely outside of NYS should not be counted towards their NYS AGI:</div><div> </div><div><i>"The New York adjusted gross income of a nonresident individual rendering personal services as an employee includes the compensation for personal services entering into his Federal adjusted gross income, but only if, and to the extent that, his services were rendered within New York State. Compensation for personal services rendered by a nonresident individual wholly without New York State is not included in his New York adjusted gross income, regardless of the fact that payment may be made from a point within New York State or that the employer is a resident individual, partnership or corporation. </i><em>Where the personal services are performed within and without New York State, the portion of the compensation attributable to the services performed within New York State must be determined in accordance with sections 132.16 through 132.18 of this Part."</em></div><div><i> </i></div><div>Additionally, <a href="https://www.dta.ny.gov/pdf/archive/Determinations/822747.det.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Matter of Kumar (ALJ May 6, 2010)</a> presents an issue where a NJ employee was charged taxes on income said to be related to a NY sales office. The ALJ ultimately determined that no tax was due, however, because the individual worked 0 days in NYS. I am hesitant to fully rely on this case for guidance, however, as the main office of the employer in this instance was located in Illinois and only the sales office was in NYS.</div>
