Which return do I file, resident or nonresident?

I lived in New Jersey for only part of the year. For answers to questions about the e-file program, including questions on document control numbers (DCNs), contact the Revenue and Enterprise Services at 60 and select the option for 'electronic filing and payment services.' The New Jersey Division of Revenue and Enterprise Services' Alternative Filing Branch is responsible for returns that are electronically filed using commercial software such as TurboTax. I filed my return using commercial software, and I have questions. For more information, visit their website.


Note: 1099-G statements for unemployment insurance benefits are issued by the Division of Unemployment Insurance within the Department of Labor and Workforce Development. For more information, see Frequently Asked Questions Form 1099-G and Form 1099-INT. Taxpayers who need this information to complete his/her federal returns can view or print their 1099-G information online. State Income Tax refunds may be taxable income for federal purposes for individuals who itemized his/her deductions on his/her federal tax return in the previous year. The State of New Jersey does not mail Form 1099-G, Certain Government Payments, to report the amount of a State tax refund a taxpayer received. The IRS requires government agencies to report certain payments made during the year because those payments are considered taxable income for the recipients. Why did (didn't) I receive a Form 1099 from New Jersey?įorms 1099-G and 1099-INT are reports of income you received from the Division of Taxation during the tax year.

If you file an amended return, you must submit all supporting schedules, forms, or documents you would have included if you filed your original return on paper. You should keep these documents for your records, as you may be asked to submit them at a later date. When you file your return electronically, you do not have to send any supporting documents unless we specifically request you to do so. New Jersey will accept a photocopy of your W-2 form(s), as long as the copy is legible. I received only one State copy of my W-2, and I have more than one state return to file.
