I’m still going to do their taxes though because we’ve worked together for a long time and all of the newer cloud-based products like Intuit Link makes it very easy for us to still work together even though they can’t give me any of their documents in person. Long story short, this is my first time to do a New York return and I’m pretty proud of myself because I think I’ve got everything right except they live in New York City and it looks like Page 3 of the IT-201 should have the tax for New York City on line 47 except that line isn't filling out. I know I gave the program withholdings for New York City on their W-2 but it’s still not filling out the tax for New York City. What am I doing wrong?”
