State tax filing

I moved to NJ from NY.  My problem is New York City local taxes requiring Form IT-360.1.  Sorry if my first explanation was not clear.

The main problem is my W-2 from NYS:    In Box 18 it shows my full 2021 earnings because my employer made an error and continued the deduction for city (local) taxes throughout the year.    It should have taken the local taxes for only Jan - Mar, 2021.  It is a joint return, my W-2 is incorrect and my spouse's W-2 is correct (stopped taking the deduction after 3/31/2021 and recorded Box 18 correctly, that is, earnings as of 3/31/2021).

My employer will not amend my W-2, but if I enter my earnings as of 3/31/2021 in Box 18 of the Turbotax W-2, it changes the 360.1 Line 1, Column B to the correct amount of wages for New City Resident Period and we receive a considerable refund.

I know I should not enter an amount in Turbotax that is is different than my actual W-2.
