So does that mean that in the biweekly paycheck I will see ny withholding and dc or just ny or just dc until the end of the year?
If you are living in NY state, you should only have NY taxes taken out of your paycheck. When that change can be made depends on your HR department. You have to tell them what withholding to take. If you have some DC taxes taken out but no DC-source income, you will still need to file a DC non-resident return to report no taxable income and get a refund of your withholding.
(DC source income is income earned while working or living in DC, regardless of where the company is based. Because you live and work in NY, your income is not considered DC-source except for days when you are working in DC such as for meetings or training.)
Meanwhile, if you are not having NY tax taken out, you should consider making NY estimated tax payments. If you don't have withholding during the year, you may owe an under-withholding penalty even if you pay in full when you file your tax return. If you over-pay your estimated payments, you would get that back as a refund on your NY return. About 6.5% of your taxable income (after pre-tax deductions like health insurance and retirement plan contributions) should be fairly close.
