What does "were all of your wages and/or your self employment income earned in New York State?"

[ny221]

I lived in Queens and worked in Connecticut (company based in CT). I Should I answer no to this question and allocate 0% to NY state on my wages earned in 2022?

Correct for no since you worked out of state, but 100% for NY. NY begins with the federal AGI and makes adjustments from there. The program needs to know about credit for other states. You live in NY so they get to tax all income earned while living there. However, they will give you a credit for the other state tax. The credit will be the lower of the state tax liabilities on the same taxable income. You may owe your resident state,  if they have a higher tax rate along with differences in how the taxable income is calculated.

Be sure to prepare the nonresident state return first for NY to give you proper credit for your CT tax paid. View both state returns and verify credit on NY.

Thank you! So it's 100% New York State income even though my company is not based in NY?

Also, I filed non-resident for CT. I still need to fill out Taxes paid to another state under Crdit for Taxes paid while filing NY?
