Are temporary residents in New York City exempted from paying income tax?
If he/she rents an apartment in New York City for more than 12 months he is only exempted if he/she stays for 183 days or less. It is upon the tax payer to prove illegibility for the exemption. For this reason you must produce supporting documents such as travel receipts and written contracts. These taxes are normally reimbursed by employers to relieve employees of unplanned expenses. The tax margin is higher if the tax payer opts to stay in New York City.
