YES!!!

Yes. Check with your Payroll Department. It should actually be coming out of your check.

Why would you have too? NYC is a part of NY STATE THE EMPIRE STATE. So why would you pay taxes. I know folks who work in jersey and pay taxes in both states but not someone who stays in NEW Rochelle works in the city and pays taxes.NO, I dont think so.

Sales tax when you buy something, yes. But the line on your paycheck that would say "NY city resident tax", then no, because you're not a city resident (5 boroughs).

There used to be an NYC tax on people who did not live in the city but who worked there. The tax has been repealed now--only NYC residents pay NYC income tax.
