CHANGE: 

 

Manhattan just lost its stranglehold on white-collar workers. 

 

“The white-collar workforce has proved it can skip the office not just one day, not just a week, not just two weeks, but for nearly five months now. Five months isn’t forever, no. But it is a long time. Just as emerging city and state officials want to extract more, in higher taxes, from business and its workers, the balance of power has indefinitely changed.”

 


If you do not work in an office in Manhattan (or anywhere in the city of New York), do you have to pay NYC city income tax? For example if my house is in NJ and I am working from home instead of my office in Midtown, does the NYC city tax now go away?  If that is how it works, that is gonna leave an even bigger hole in the NYC budget.

No.  There used to be a commuter tax, Rudy got rid of it, and the left has been screaming about it ever since.

I am not stating you are wrong but the job description is very pertinent to this. My cousin does small business finance and they were quickly able to do their job from home, and they will likely change there the office needs based on currently only needing to go in twice a week and getting everything else done from home. I as a teacher need to see kids face to face to make it work properly. The 4th quarter was abysmal for effort and achievement from the kids.


I absolutely disagree. I’m not discussing the ability to get your work done remotely. People need a change of scenery. When where you live also becomes your place of work there is a psychological issue here.  Also not everyone has the square footage/floor plan to accommodate a home office. My wife had commendered our dining room table as her “office” the past four plus months and our place ain’t cheap. 
 

Companies are going to use this as a way to greatly reduce their lease payments.  My office is $11k a month plus HVAC at $50 an hour if someone comes in on the weekend.  They have to really consider the change in productivity by having people work from home. Not everyone is cut out for that.

But of course you still pay the full bore NYS tax, even if you don't set foot in NYS.

Cuomo beats back ‘surprise’ AOC challenge to lead NY delegation to DNC
 

Gov. Andrew Cuomo easily defeated Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Tuesday in a surprise challenge to determine who will head New York’s delegation to the Democratic National Convention.
 

Democratic Party chairman Jay Jacobs — a Cuomo ally — fumed that he was “blindsided” when a motion was made to nominate AOC to head the delegation during an online Democratic Committee meeting.
 

Still, Cuomo received 218 votes compared to the 34 votes gleaned by the first-term congresswoman, who represents portions of Queens and The Bronx, Jacobs said
