I moved to NJ from NYC then received a severance bonus that withheld NYC local tax. Is there a way to get it back when I file?

At the end of September I was laid off from a company based in NYC, where I was also living. I moved to New Jersey on October 15th, and received a severance bonus on the 20th. Unfortunately I didn't update my address in the company's HR portal, so I ended up paying $850 in New York City tax.

 

Am I owed this money since I was not residing in NYC when the bonus was issued? If so, is there a way I can get the money back when I file my taxes?
