New York equity allocation (IT-203-F, Sch B)

You worked in and out of New York while stock options, restricted stock, or a stock appreciation right vested. New York taxes the share of that compensation earned on New York workdays. IT-203-F, Schedule B does the day count — this worksheet works it line by line.

Testing only — do not rely on these figures. The day-count and workday-fraction logic behind this worksheet has not been fully verified. This page is excluded from search engines until it is.

1 · Work-location timeline

Where you physically worked, as date ranges. New York is the residual: a working day counts as a New York day (line 17) unless it falls in an outside New York period (line 14). Periods should cover each grant’s allocation period below; both dates are inclusive.

Days worked at home (line 15). Normal work-at-home days count as New York days even when your home is outside the state. Enter them as ranges — only days that fall inside an outside New York period are added back to New York. A day count takes the earliest open out-of-state weekdays inside the range.

2 · Nonworking days

Weekends (line 7) come out automatically. Holidays (line 8) default to the federal calendar (observed dates; Juneteenth from 2021) — uncheck any your employer did not observe.

Sick (line 9), vacation (line 10), other days off (line 11), and any custom employer holidays, as date ranges. A range counts only weekdays that are not federal holidays. If you know the total but not the exact dates, enter a day count — it takes the earliest open weekdays inside the range.

3 · Grants (one Schedule B each)

One card per option, stock, or right you were granted. The grant type sets what goes on lines 3 and 4 and the allocation period, per the Schedule B Table.

NY IT-203-F, Schedule B — New York workday fraction

Prepared · jonathanlinci.com

Worksheet, not the filed form. This reproduces the day count and arithmetic of Form IT-203-F, Schedule B, following its instructions and TSB-M-07(7)I. It covers only Schedule B (stock options, restricted stock, and stock appreciation rights) — not Schedule A. The out-of-state day allowance (line 14) must rest on the necessity, not convenience, of your employer; the work-at-home add-back (line 15) reflects New York’s convenience rule. Whether a day qualifies is a judgment this tool cannot make for you. Estimate only; not tax advice, and using it does not create a client relationship.
