NJEITC Denied Due to Income

What information was adjusted?
We adjusted the amount of the New Jersey Earned Income Tax Credit (NJEITC) on your New Jersey Resident return (Form NJ-1040).

Why did you make this adjustment?
The total income reported on your NJ-1040 was over the income limit to receive an NJEITC.

I do not agree with your adjustment. Can this be resolved over the phone?
No. If you do not agree with the adjustment, you must submit documentation and we will review it. Send us a copy of the original notice along with the following documents:

Federal Income Tax Return (Form 1040);
All of your W-2s and/or 1099;
Any other documents that support your claim.

Where should I mail my documents?
You can mail your items to:
New Jersey Division of Taxation

Can I email or fax my documents?
No. Documents sent to PO Box 266 must be mailed.

What if I lost my W-2 or 1099?
Contact the issuer for a copy.

I had multiple jobs. Do you need all of my W-2's and 1099s?
Yes. Submit all W-2's and 1099s.

Do you need my spouse's information too?
If you filed Married Filing Joint (MFJ), submit copies of all W-2 and 1099 information for both you and your spouse.
