Question
California / New York State Returns (NR)
Hello,
I have some clients who work for touring musicians.
Touring employees typically are withheld on in each state where there is a show (so, often 15-20 states per person!)
I have one person who was withheld on in multiple states. Most of them are coming up correctly as being $0 due (the state returns reflect the <$1000 income, the small withholding, and a $0 balance due.)
However, California and New York - something is really off.
The employer shows the CA and NY wages to be equal to the total annual income - rather than only the income made in that state (the client lives abroad and so there's no way state wages could be equal to the full annual salary in both states)
Please help - what do I do here?
