You need to pay the state taxes for money earned while you were a resident in that state. The best way to do this is to contact your HR department and ask for a corrected W-2 (W-2C). Some companies can be pain’s getting this done but it will be the best because then your taxes and the company’s payroll submissions will match. If they don’t do it, you don’t get out of jail free. You still need to report correctly on your taxes the income you earned in each state.

Thank You.

I forgot to add that her job deducts state taxes, while my job does not deduct state taxes.

Do I have to do the same for all our various investment 1099s? Show 10 months of NJ separately and 2 months of CT?

Edit - Considering that shipping lines don't deduct state taxes, should I still ask for a W-2C from them showing the different addresses? Or can I just submit the W2 that I have with the CT address and manually input the state wise incomes?

Thanks once again for your help.

If they don’t withhold any state taxes you don’t really need a corrected w2. I would think.
