I lived and worked remotely in NYC for 10 months and lived and worked remotely in NC for two months. Turbotax is recommending that I change my residency to NY full time resident. I don't know why and I don't want to be taxed twice.

-Can I confirm I would be a NY part time resident?

-How can I make sure I'm not going to be taxed twice?

-Would I allocate the income to NYC city tax based on how long I lived in the city (10 months) or would it be 100% and why?

-If I own a rental property in Illinois (never lived there in 2024), and am filing a non resident tax for Illinois, does any of my rental property income need to be allocated for the NYC property tax if I made the rental property income through the year in Illinois (not in NYC)? I don't think so but making sure. Only money made in NYC is subject to the NYC city tax right?

Thank you Sharon, Trying to file today to save on the filing price increase

I forgot to tell you that my W2 witheld NC taxes since my address was NC for all of 2024 and I plan to keep it that. way for next year also. So my W2 has my NC address, my company has a tax address in both NY and NC and I lived 10 months in NYC and 2 months in NC last year working remotely but I am renting/living in NYC at the moment and just going back to NC for visiting.

I saw there is something about NY convenience of employer rule not sure if that has anything to do with this. chrome-extension://efaidnbmnnnibpcajpcglclefindmkaj/https://www.tax.ny.gov/pdf/memos/income/m06_5i.pdf

-Can I please clarify for my situation last year in 2024 which of the following you are recommend I file and how much of the income to allocate to each state when I file in order to get the tax credit that I paid to NC on the W2 (since my W2 had NC for 2024 and I only lived there for 2 months in 2024)? I'm trying to file by today to save on the filing increase.
