Entering whole dollar amounts

When you enter amounts on your return, enter whole dollar amounts only . This includes amounts on any credit forms, schedules, or other forms you submit with your New York State return.

Do not enter any cent amounts. We preprinted the zeros in that box. Instead, round cents to the nearest dollar using the following rules:

Drop amounts that are less than 50 cents. For example, $1.39 becomes $1.

Increase amounts that are 50 cents or more to the next dollar. For example, $2.50 becomes $3.
