Hi there, I am being asked to give $2,768 to New Jersey and think that is incorrect. Someone please help me.

Can you provide some more details regarding your situation?   Are you filing multiple state returns?   You may have a refund in another state that covers what you owe to NJ.  

Check to ensure all tax payments made to New Jersey are entered into TurboTax.

I filed state tax returns, one for Illinois and one for New Jersey. New Jersey is asking for $2,768 in return, but I do not see anything regarding Illinois. Would I be covered from Illinois for living there during 2024?

It looks like it says my IL state refund would be $63. How is it that small of an amount?

If you lived in NJ and IL, you need to file part-year resident return in both states and allocate your income between the two states. 

How do I file a part-year state return?

How do I allocate (split) income for a part-year state return?

If your situation is different, please provide more information in regard to where you lived and worked in 2024.
