Hi,

Im NJ resident and company is based in NJ. Every day i take company car from NJ and pick up from NY CITY and bring back to NJ.

I received TWO w-2 forms. one for NJ and one for NY . Each have same box 1 federal wages

NY BOX 15-NY , BOX 16-$15000 BOX 17 $300.

So i MUST use this box 16 $15000 for NY state as none resident income even though company is in NJ AND I ONLY TRAVELED TO NY?

Yes, that is correct. You will file non-resident NY based on that W2 income. You should complete the NY non-resident return first and take note of the income taxed and the income tax imposed by NY. Those numbers will be used to claim a credit on your NJ return for taxes paid to another state to mitigate the double taxation since NJ as your resident state is taxing all income from all sources.

You will find the credit for taxes paid to another state in the "Credits" section in the NJ state interview.
