- New Jersey and PA have tax reciprocity. That means if you live in PA
- and work in NJ, your employer witholds PA tax and you don't pay NJ Tax
- except for unemployment insurance. Your paycheck from August to
- December should indicate that you paid PA tax. By the way, you may have
- paid enough state and local taxes (NYC and Phila !) to make it work
- itemizing.
