State Tax

[Horees 2]

Hello again,

I moved to Anchorage which is income free tax city from NY which has high income tax rates.

My work in Alaska, and I wonder which state tax rules should be applied to me?

Is it NY until I change my driver license to Alaska? or it doesn't make any difference?

Thanks

When you oficially moved to Alaska you are under their jurisdiction. When your tax professional does your taxes he will do both NY and Alaska taxes. And if you overpaid the NY taxes you will get a refund. For instance if you lived in NY for 4 months and then 8 months in Alaska you will only have to pay the NY taxes for the 4 months that you earned income in NY.

So, I'll be deducted each month according to NY tax even if I moved to Alaska for a new job, until filling the next year tax?

There isn't any reason for an Alaska company to deduct New York income taxes from your pay. You filled out a W-4 form for federal taxes, which will be deducted from your pay according to whatever you put down on the W-4.

Let me know when you need tips on skinning your first grizzly. I've done five of them so far.

I think I filled W-4 using my new york data, because I dont have any alaskan data.

I really need to get this money now, instead of be returned in the next year tax return
