    If you work and live in Georgia, then you pay GEORGIA state income taxes.

    MAKE SURE your employer knows this so he does NOT withhold NY state income taxes anymore AND that he refunds the NY state taxes withheld to date. If the NY state taxes cannot be refunded, you will need to request a total refund from NY state come January 2012.
