    If you make enough money, the answer is one (1) day - NY does not have have a time or income threshold for subjecting NY-sourced income to NY tax law.

     

    You may not owe tax or even have to file a return, but it only takes one day of working in NY to find yourself subject to NY tax.

     

    See: Filing information for New York State nonresident

     

    NY  strictly enforces this position for very high-earners, such as professional athletes, professional entertainers, and corporate executives.

     

    For a more detailed discussion of this subject, see @DanielV01 post at I work for a NY company, remotely from NC. I spent 1 day in 2017 on site, but my W-2 has full salary in the state earnings boxes for both NC and NY. How can I allocate?
