Moving to NJ but will still be working in NYC! 1.Will I be classed as an NYC resident for 2008 as I will have lived there for the majority of the year or classed as both?
You will be classified as a part time resident for NJ and NY state, so you will be filing a 2 State tax return. You will have to clearly state the dates you were a NYC resident as well when you became a NJ resident. 2. Will I receive two W-2's at the end of the year?
I don't think so, since you are presumably going to work exclusively in NYC. 3.Do I have to file both NY & NJ taxes at year end?
Yes, as I mentioned in point 1 above. 4. Are there any other forms that I need to complete at this time?
Only the Federal, NY and NJ Tax Returns for tax year 2008. |
