My husband in the was USARMY stationed at West Point, New York up until the end of August of 2008 therefore he was not a New York resident. We moved to Highland Falls, New York September 15,2008. Do we file a part time New York resident form? He was only a New York resident from September 15, 2008 till December 31, 2008. Thanks! GH

Yes, you file part year resident in both New York and the home resident state.

BTW - Sounds like your husband landed a great duty station. When I was a puppy, I used to do Ma Bell (NY Telephone) company phone work up there.

If I live in NC half time and work out of the country the other half, do I have to pay state income tax?

Please open a new thread for your question, do not piggyback onto an existing question.

Thank you - Don

Yes, you file as a part-year resident and pay taxes on money earned while in NC.
