Capital Gains from sale of house in NY was paid at the closing.  Client lives in another state. When filing his federal, I know this is a gain.. do we have to pay on it again to the state he resides in?

Yes. Your resident state taxes all of your income. Generally, you can get a credit for tax paid to another state. You have to file a nonresident tax return in the other state. Withholding at settlement doesn't cut it.

The more I know, the more I don't know.
