This is an interesting topic to me since I’m going through the process to get in-state residency in New York City too. Can anyone help with my case as below?
I’ve been physically staying in NYC under a sublet apt., and working part-time for a company in NY for more than 1 year. But, my part-time income last year was only $7,500 (more than tuition), and my spouse worked in another state and filed tax return in that state (so, he can’t help me with the NY residency). I was wondering if I am qualified to claim NY residency yet. And, is there any minimum NY income to earn to get that benefit.
