Have a total distribution in part II but no NJ source distributed. Individual box is marked Nonresident and New Jersey Source distributed is blank. This is for an old estate from 1986 with no will. Do I file an NJ state tax ?

No, you would not need to file a NJ state return. A distribution from an estate is not taxable income.

 

Unless the K-1 reported NJ-source income, then you do not have a NJ state tax filing requirement.
