"The Garden State"
Navigating state income taxes can be a complex landscape. While some states levy significant taxes but provide ample deductions, others have no income tax at all. To simplify the process and potentially save on costs, consider filing your state taxes online.
- State return only regulations*): Due to IRS and New Jersey tax regulations, you cannot electronically file your New Jersey state return (except for California) unless you also e-file your federal return on the same platform. However, if you've already filed your federal return elsewhere, you can still prepare your New Jersey state return on eFile.com. After preparing it, you'll need to download, print, sign, and mail it in the traditional way.
