Unfortunately, the W-2 is correct. Your last pay period ended on December 27th, 2021. You worked those hours in New York. Therefore, you do owe the tax to New York.
Fortunately, if you're single and you're not claimed by someone else as a dependent, the standard deduction for NY is $8,000, married is $16,000.
You should:
- File a NY Non-Resident return.
- Include the NY income as it shows on your W-2.
- Take the $8,000/$16,000 deduction, and
- See what you get back in NY income tax.
