Does FreeTaxUSA File 203 IT?

I lived in Massachusetts for the first half of 2024 and then went remote with my job and moved to NY for the second half of 2024. My full year's salary is showing on the NY state return, instead of just the amount earned in NY. There doesn't seem to be a way to reflect the partial income for NY in the FreeTaxUSA system. How should I file my NY state tax? Am I able to file the 203 IT with FreeTaxUSA?

    Hi JL120,

    NY does a calculation on NY taxable income different than most states. As a part-year resident of NY, 100% of your income is reported to NY, but then you allocate how much was earned there and on the NY return the software calculates your tax on the amount of NY source income / Total Income. It works out so you are not taxed on all your income by NY.
