Company withheld tax for wrong state (CA)
In 2020 if company incorrectly withheld tax in CA but I was living in NY, then I need to file CA tax form to get refund for 2020 but still pay NY in full for state tax amount on my entire income right?

How did NY claim when company showed your residence in CA?

They withheld in CA for several months then paystub withholding swapped to NY and final W2 shows NY as the state. I only filed for NY at the time

Had a similar situation, but what you said sounds right. Use an accountant to help
NY says I owe money as company did not pay them the withheld $. I read I should file non resident return for CA with 0$ and say it was error requesting the withheld money and pay NY the full state tax
