Hello, I lived in New Jersey in January and February 2022 and had a part-time job there. I moved to North Carolina in March 2022, but have not had a job in NC. However, I have been receiving social security and a NJ state pension all year. I also sold my 50% share of a townhome in NJ when I moved.

How do I file my taxes? 

Thank you!

    I suggest the following:

     

    • You would report your wages as earned in New Jersey.  
    • Your social security is not taxable in either state.
    • Your pension may be allocated with 2/12 to NJ and 10/12 to North Carolina.
    • The sale of your portion of the NJ townhome should be allocated solely to NJ. 

     

    Here is a resource regarding the sale of your home, you will need to report the sale on your tax return:

    The following will help regarding your move:

    Enjoy North Carolina, it is a great state!
