You were a part-year resident of NY state for 2003 and 2004, and a part-year resident of NJ for 2004.

You were also a part-year resident of the state in which you lived in 2003 prior to moving to NY state.

7/1/2003 to 6/30/2004. Since you worked in NY, you must report this income on the NY tax return.

7/1/2004 to 11/30/2004. You worked in NJ so you must report this income on NJ tax return. But you lived in NY. So you must report this income on the NY tax return also. On the NY tax return, you will claim credit for taxes paid to NJ.

Thanks for the help.

Do you think this definition applies to me in 2003 and 2004?
Resident:
You are a New York State resident if:
a) Your domicile is not New York State, but you maintain a permanent place of
Abode in New York State and spend 184 days or more in New York State during
The taxable year.

Also, I'm losing the refund on 03 and 04. Do you think I get refund from 0 onwards even though I never apply for state extension? I did fed. Extension
Thanks for your time

The extension is not relevant, because you have forfeited any refunds from either 2003 or 2004, due to the three-year statute of limitations on filing for tax refund on either federal or state level.

The latest you could have filed for a refund for 2004 was 15 Aprl 2008.
