For a person working in NYC, and living in NYC, the person pays Fed tax+ FICA + NY state tax + NYC city tax. If one works in NYC and stays in NJ., what are the taxes the person pays?

Answer 1 :
I think you would pay the same, but you should check with the IRS to be sure. If you are currently employed your company payroll department knows. Of course you also pay SSI

About Where are good places to live in New Jersey, just outside of NYC

Where are good places to live in New Jersey, just outside of NYC?
Hi. I am looking for a place to live with three friends of mine. We all want to work in the city but don't want to pay the price to live in Manhattan since we are just starting out. Does anyone know of safe and reasonably priced places to live in New Jersey? I was looking at Jersey City and Bayonne, but I am not familiar with these areas. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Answer 1 :
Don't move to Jersey City its kind of crowded. I think Bayonne seems like a better place to live, my sister is moving there next month she currently lives in jersey city.
Answer 2 :
Jersey city and Hoboken if you want to be really close to New York. (Commute costs is much cheaper, but rent is high. I don't really like there since it is too crowd. Jersey city have many areas, and I will consider the safety issue for some of its area.) If you don't mind your daily commute to about 2.5 ~ 3 hours (door to door) and cost around 220 per month for the train ticket. I will suggest you to think about the Middle Jersey. You get much bigger an better area for the same price. Areas around Metropark or Wookbridge train station. There are many people lives there and work in NY (including me.) You can get some idea about the area with http://www.bestplaces.net/ I was research the areas around NJ transit's train line and NJ path's line to find the place that fits myself.
Answer 3 :
Hi, My first choice of places to live outside of NYC would probably be Hoboken. However, it can still be really expensive even when you are splitting the rent. But it is a great little town with some fun bars. You could easily hang out there with a good crowd on the weekends without having to go into nyc to clubs and stuff. I would avoid Jersey City because there are a lot of unsafe areas. Bayonne is okay...I know the transportation is very good to the city. It has become a really wide variety of ethnicities.....Arabs, Indians, Pakistanees, Hindues, and some other Asians. I would also check out towns like Weehawken, Montclair, or Paramus. But also remember since you will be working in NYC ...you will be taxed by NY and NJ on your income.
Answer 4 :
Much of the area just outside on New York City is priced almost as high as New York is. There are still some rent controlled buildings and apartments in Hoboken and Jersey City, but I feel Jersey City may not be the best area due to the crime in the area. If I were to choose, I would look in northern Hudson County, in towns like Weehawken, Gutenberg and North Bergen. All of these towns and townships are within easy commuting distance to the PATH trains in Jersey City through the LITERAIL system, and are, at most, 25-30 from the Port Authority Bus Terminal via several bus routes

About I'm in need of getting rental assistance for back rent in Hudson county, Jersey city, NJ. Can anyone help me

I'm in need of getting rental assistance for back rent in Hudson county, Jersey city, NJ. Can anyone help me?
I live in Jersey city, NJ. (Hudson county) I do work. Business just hasn't been good to me. I know that some non-profit organizations and churches offer this kind of help. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I would be grateful for any help that I can get, even if its not all of what I owe to my landlord. Anything would show good faith in my efforts to resolve this debt and have a place to live moving forward.

Answer 1 :
Rental assistance programs almost never pay back rent. Furthermore, most rental assistance programs from charities are limited to one month, and they must ensure that you will be able to pay future months. They cannot waste exceedingly scarce resources on someone who is going to get evicted anyway. Also, a great many people have lost their jobs, lost their homes, and are just looking for a security deposit (which the charity can get back - or try to - and recycle that money for future needs). Priorities depend on the charity, but count on it being the elderly, disabled, family/parent with a minor child. You will have to call your local housing office to see if they or any charities have funds for helping with rent. If NJ has an InfoLine, call them for basic info & where to start. Many charities require a referral from the local housing office, a church, etc, to make an appointment. Sorry to sound so discouraging, but millions of people are looking for housing assistance, and hardly any is available anywhere. It is easier to get food than rent. Business is bad for a lot of people, and 31 million Americans are looking for work. At least you have a job/biz.
Answer 2 :
Department of social services most likely will help if you qualify but if you dont, they will send you to alternative place for help.
Answer 3 :
The Salvation Army will help you if you can both prove you are under eviction and you can pay your rent moving forward. If it looks like they are just delaying your eviction they will not help you.
Answer 4 :
What you describe does not exist. If you are in a place and cannot pay the current months rent, you may be able to get a charity (Salvation Army, United Way) to either pay your rent or cover some of it. Paying your back rent is your onus

About If you work in New York City but live in New Jersey, do you pay state income taxes to New York or New Jersey

If you work in New York City but live in New Jersey, do you pay state income taxes to New York or New Jersey?

Answer 1 :
Both, but NJ should credit what you pay to NY.
Answer 2 :
If you file both and do the paperwork correctly, then you might only have to pay New York, because the NJ tax might not be any more than the credit for tax paid to NY, so you might owe NJ $0. If you do not file both, meaning that you file one or the other, or none, then you do have to pay both.
Answer 3 :
according to IRS your tax home is where you work unless the job is a short, temporary, less than a year assignment so if this is not the case you will file NY return and non resident NJ
