<li><p>Are you required to send your federal income tax form along with your NJ income tax form?</p></li>
<li><p>Do I still need to file for NJ income tax even if I am willing to forget my refund?</p></li>
</ol>
<p>Due to campus job son paid about $20 in NJ income tax. I am willing to let go that amount, but some one told me that in NJ he is REQUIRED to file for income tax.</p>
<p>I only lived in New Jersey for part of the year. Which return do I file, resident or nonresident?</p>
<p>Any person who became a resident of New Jersey or moved out of the State during the year and whose income from all sources for the entire year is greater than $20,000 ($10,000 if filing status is single or married, filing separate return) must file a New Jersey resident income tax return (Form NJ-1040) and report that portion of their income received while a resident of New Jersey. A part-year resident who received income from New Jersey sources while a nonresident of this State must also file a New Jersey nonresident return (Form NJ-1040NR) if their income from all sources for the entire year exceeds the filing threshold above. Part-year residents (and part-year nonresidents) must prorate all income, exemptions, deductions, and credits, as well as the pension and other retirement income exclusions, if applicable, to reflect the period covered by the return. Additional information on filing a part-year return is available at: </p>
