I lived in NY and NJ and Texas, I lived in Texas for longest period. More background:
Hello,
I have several questions regarding how taxes were taken out of my paycheck.
First some background:
A) I lived in NYC from July 14 - October 5 (Just short of 3 Months)
B) I lived Jersey City, NJ from October 5 - November 7 (1 Month)
C) I lived in Fishkill, NY from November 7 - November 21 (About 2 Weeks)
D) I worked in Jersey City, NJ from July 17 - November 07
E) I never informed my company of my move from NYC to Jersey City, so taxes were probably withheld as though I was in NYC the entire time.
Now my questions:
1) Is there any particular order that I must file my Tax returns (e.g. New Jersey before New York)?
2) From January 01 - July 14 I lived in Texas (>6 months), Does this mean that I qualify as a Texas resident?
3) If I qualify as a Texas resident, should I expect to receive money from both NY and NJ?
4) While Filing the NonResident of NY tax form it says that I owe them nearly the amount that I paid to NJ. Is this correct?
Thank you very much for your help!
