Taxes. I work in Chicago but interviewing for a remote role with a New York agency. Will I have to pay taxes in Illinois and New York? How has this worked for all of you during remote?

I was remote in another state but working for a company based in NYC. New York state and city both came after me to collect a full year of taxes even though I was only in new york a few days.

Expect them to send you a letter requesting proof that you didnt set foot in NY while working. Fortunately they backed down in my case after I sent that proof, but theyre much more aggressive than other states given their dire financial position.

This is different across every single state, and some states have reciprocity agreements with neighboring states.
In IL If you work more than 30 days you have to pay state taxes. NY its 14 days. So if you ever have to work from the NY office it could be a factor. Otherwise you’d just be paying Illinois taxes.

I forgot to add- taxes are based on the amount of time you’re in those states. Say you spent two months working in NY and the rest of the year in Chicago. You’d pay NY income tax on two months’ salary, and IL income tax on the other 10 months.

You pay taxes only where you live.

I live in Washington and work for a company based in California.

I only pay WA state taxes, so I imagine you’d only be in the hook for Illinois taxes. If they have other out of state people on the team, they’ve probably had others ask as well. Maybe ask the recruiter or hiring manager for peace of mind.

I work in NY and live in NJ. The company withdraws NY taxes. I file state returns in both NY and NJ and what I pay in NY is credited against what owe NJ.

This was the same for me when living in Indiana, but working in Illinois. The rules are different state by state.

Talk to a tax person because it’s important to know this before going into salary negotiations. They’ll be tempted to pay you a cheaper salary but if you’re still paying nyc taxes, Don’t let them

I think you will be considered a part time resident in NY. You will have to file tax returns in NY & IL.

Move to Nashville and just pay Fed tax.

I’m doing this with company in GA, only pay state tax in IL

Based of your primary residence, thats what your W2 will say

Thank you all for your advice.

Need advice on a specific question!
Interviewed with Chicago court 2 weeks ago; they decide mid-August. Interviewed with DC judge last week; hear from him by this Friday. Chicago said if I need an answer before August, they'd try to make a decision about me sooner.
Should I ask Chicago for an answer? Or should I wait until there's an offer from DC judge? Maybe seems better to withdraw before an offer is made rather than ask for time to think about it/turn down DC? What's proper etiquette?

One of my friends works as a Director in Nagarro. She has been there for 7 years and has a CTC of 42 with total yoe 17. Per current trend this is low even though she is a constant top performer. She says that even though delivery people play a pivotal role, they are not paid well. In her team, she sees technical people earning 45-50 at 10-11 yoe. So the factor is 2.5 for delivery vs 4.5 to 5 for technical roles. Per her, this is quite common in Nagarro & she is not an outlier. ctd in comments

Hi Fishes,

Thanks.

I'm 32 and looking to make a career change. Previously I've been in sales, sales QA and some analyst position.

How realistic is it to go from no computer science degree, to getting Salesforce certs and an admin role?
