If I received my federal tax return and did not receive my New York state tax return, and I filed them at the same time what am I suppose to do?

They are Two separate Agencies, Federal IRS and State Department of Revenue.  Therefore, they operate independently from each other.  It is Not uncommon to receive ones Federal Tax Refund before their State.

State taxes comes separately from federal taxes... And usually a week later, sometimes more.

State refunds aren't always a week later, but they are approved independently of the IRS. NYS' standard timeframe is 3 weeks, same as the IRS. If you don't get it by then, call the NYS tax authorities at 518-457-5181.
