NYS resident, working as a fulltime remote employee for a PA company. how to file?

There seems to be varying opinions throughout TurboTax on whether my situation requires filing a state return in both PA and NY.  My PA employer does not withhold any PA tax.  Is that in error as it seems PA is one of those states that treat telecommuting work as taxable in the state where the employer is located?  Perhaps my employer is claiming that I work remote under the convenience of the employer rule, but does that ruling need to be made official in writing? 

 

Do I need to file in PA as a nonresident?  If I can get an official ruling from my company that I work remote at their convenience, do I still need to file in PA?  If I have to file in PA, will NY provide a credit for taxes paid to PA or will I be double taxed?
