There may be several reasons why you owe NY taxes. The following are some suggestions to help you find the reason:

  • Double check the amounts you entered into TurboTax to make sure they were entered correctly.
  • If you received a state refund last year, do a state income tax return line by line comparison to see what is different this year versus last year.  
  • Your 2019 State Tax Withholding was lower than 2018.  
  • You deferred less income into your Employer-Sponsored Retirement Plan or Flexible Savings Plan.
  • You didn't qualify for a tax credit you received last year (or the credit amount decreased).
  • You deleted a dependent.
  • You changed your filing status.
  • If you itemize, your Itemized Deductions are lower this year.
