How to determine income taxed by both NY and NJ

Hi,
I live in NJ, but work in NY. I am filing out my NJ tax return form and I am trying to understand how to determine the amount taxed by both NY and NJ for credit.
From my NY return, I have the following:
- NY Non-resident AGI is $28,700
- NY taxable income is $32,200 (which is higher than my W2 NY income, which is confusing but maybe right due to this)
Which number should I put in as taxed by both NY and NJ?

Hello, Pt300,
This is a very confusing observation for sure. The shared income is mostly based on the amount shown on the W-2 for NY and NJ. Look at the state portion of the W-2 to compare what is being claimed by both NY and NJ and use that for the Taxes Paid to Another State as the shared income taxed by both states.
