OK here is the deal. I live in New Jersey and work in Delaware. Per my W-2, I made $56,000 and paid $2,200 in income tax to the state of Delaware. I did my taxes online using H&R Block.
Result: Federal refund of $360, Delaware refund of $130. And I owe New Jersey $1,500!!
Is this right? I did some googling and it seems like New Jersey allows you to count your credit of taxes paid elsewhere? But after that (in my case, $2200) is deducted, I still have to pay taxes on the rest? I am confused. Does this seem right? And if it is right, what should I do going forward? Ask my boss to have NJ taxes taken out in addition to the DE taxes?
Thanks for any insight you can provide!
