We reside in New Jersey. My wife's income is earned in New Jersey. My income is earned in New York. Each we would adjust Taxable Wages down by subtracting my NY wages from Line one on the New Jersey Line One for wages. Is this not the correct way to report the wages?

    Use NJ-COJ to report NY tax on your NJ tax return.

    Ouch. You should be subtracting your wife's income since that is NJ income not taxed by both states.
