Question

I live and work remotely in PA (all year). My company is located in NJ. Did I make money in another state?

Yes. You lived and worked in PA so you must file a PA return. You earned income from NJ so you have NJ source income. However, there is a NJ-PA reciprocal agreement in effect so you do not need to file the NJ return according to NJ. For more information, see Credit for Taxes Paid to Other Jurisdictions - NJ.gov

@Scotlass - Did your employer withhold NJ Tax? 

 

@AmyC  - What about the NJ - PA reciprocal agreement?  How does that work in conjunction with apparently competing  the PA -NJ telecommuting rules.

Hello and thank you for the quick response! They did not collect NJ taxes only PA.
