The nurses from Jersey will be ok.

Nothing new.

If you work in New York, but do not live there, you must file a non-resident tax return and report your income earned there. ... So that you are not double taxed, New Jersey will allow a credit for taxes paid to another state. The amount of the credit can include both state and local jurisdiction taxes.

Subsidies to illegals, but not emergency health workers.

It’s the New York state of mind.

...they will have to pay New York state taxes, even on income they might make from their home states that they’re paid while in New York.

Is that legal?

Done all the time to pro athletes. They file everywhere they play or train (if that state has a state income tax).

I work for a company in Massachusetts but live in Georgia. I do not pay any Massachusetts taxes but rather Georgia taxes. In the past I’ve worked for companies that required me to spend an extended amount of time (30-60 days) in another state. My income tax is based on where I am a permanent resident not the location I am working at.
If a company from NY hired me to work in NY for a period of time I would expect to pay NY taxes.

That begs the question of legality mattering to left-wing politicians, whether Democratic or RINO.

So how are professional athletes the same as health care volunteers who go to another state in the case of an emergency?

not sure I understand the question.

The subject is the legality of a state collecting income taxes from non-residents if they have income for work done there. Might not be wise, but it’s standard practice.

New Yorkers elected Cuomo and pals. As we see, it’s a mistake to help them in any way.

1. Taxing people who work in your state but do not live there is unconstitutional. The fact that it has not been challenged changes nothing.

2. You should have told them that when you asked them to come and help. That you didn’t, constitutes fraud, and you should be jailed.

Isn’t “paid volunteer” an oxymoron?

I’m wondering if he’s got balls enough to tell the family of the guy from Denver who died there in NYC that HE has to pay NY state taxes for the time he was there?

There are no end to reasons why I am leaving this God forsaken state.

What a bunch of blood thirsty mercenaries.

We don’t call it *The Vampire State* for nothing.

Your story is not so unusual.

NYS is beyond disgusting in how it treats people.

That’s true. I am a nurse and other nurses were showing me recruitment ads paying as high as $10000 a week, all expenses paid. After what I have read about the working conditions I wonder if many decide it wasn’t worth it.

“Not if the volunteer is from out of state and being paid out of state.”

Nope.

I'm open to correction, but I believe NY and NYC can only tax income earned in NY or NYC. Not income from your state of legal residence. Needless to say the Governor is disinterested in any of those paid volunteers relocating to NY. Or in raising "volunteers" if needed in the future.
