    You must file state returns for both NJ and NY.

    You report all income on both returns, but you pay taxes only on the NY-sourced income on the NY return.

    On the NJ return, you pay taxes on all of your income, but you can claim a credit for the taxes paid to NY.

    If this sounds too complicated, I recommend you get professional help.

    I have experience filing both states, so if you want my professional help, email me at the email address in my profile.
