    Actually, he has to declare the earned income on BOTH the Virginia and New Jersey tax return.

    He will PAY taxes to Virginia as the state in which he worked, but, after listing the income on his New Jersey return, he will claim a tax credit on the New Jersey return (for the state in which he LIVES as a full-year resident) for the Virginia taxes he paid.

    The result of claiming that credit is that he will NOT pay taxes to two different states on the same income.
