    Who is a part or full time resident in NY City?
    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.
