Personal Income Tax

New York City charges a personal income tax to City residents. The tax is administered and collected by the New York State Department of Taxation and Finance for the City.

Who must pay this Tax?
Every income-earning individual, estate and trust residing in New York City must pay personal income tax. Part-year residents figure their tax based on income and deductions on the days lived in NYC.

Most people living outside the City are not subject to NYC personal income tax. However, non-city residents who are Employees of New York City must file Form 1127 and pay taxes each year. The amount is equal to the personal income tax they would owe if they were City residents.

Filing Information and Forms
The City personal income tax is filed with New York State.
