    To deduct your alimony on your New Jersey tax return, you can enter it in the federal section, Deductions & Credits, Other Deductions and Credits.  If you cannot deduct on your federal tax return, you have to indicate 

    "Your divorce decree, written separation agreement, or separate maintenance agreement was modified after December 31, 2018 to indicate that the amount you paid is no longer deductible."
