Reply to comment by porkchameleon in Any reccos for a Philly tax accountant who can help a NY-remote employee file properly? by BearBong

eI'm a Philly resident, but my company has me on the books as a NYC employee (they had no 'remote' open headcount, but the fit was really great). Company records with me residing in Philly

Yeah, I am not a CPA, but in my personal experience - you shouldn't be on the hook for any tricky tax scheme (and if they have anything NYC taken out of your paycheck while you live in Philly and pay city wage tax - talk to a proper tax person ASAP as possible).

Any local CPA should be fine otherwise (can't direct you to anyone specific, since I use either H&R Block or family does it for me).

NYC income tax is for residents of NYC only (even if you work there, if you live out of the city, you don't pay it), so he's right you should pay 0 to NYC. There used to be a commuter tax back in the day, but not anymore.
