NY will tax your income earned from performing services in NY. If you were an employee, and performed services for a NY employer part of the time in NY and part of the time at your home in MA, you are subject to NY tax on all of your earnings from the NY employer. MA will allow you credit for the tax you pay to NY on your NY earnings, except that if any part of your earnings from your NY employer was earned by performing services in MA, no credit may be allowed on that part of your income.
