I'm living in New Jersey 100% at the time since y of 2007 but working in Brooklyn NY.and commuting everyday to Brooklyn. I used to live and rent an apartment in Brooklyn with my daughter and both names are on the lease.On my 2008 tax return I've claimed myself as a non-resident of NYC. The NYC Tax dept. charging me now as a part time NYC resident.Are they right?
Thanks for a answer.

PS. I haven't cancel my name on the lease for pure reason of convenience.

Shevi:

If you actually live in NJ, and did NOT live in the apartment at any time in 2008, then tell the NY Tax Department that.

You should not be treated as a NYC resident if you are in fact NOT a resident.

Now, you SHOULD get your name off that lease as soon as possible.
