State tax filing

If you live in MA and physically work in NY, it works like this:

 

NY can tax you on the income you earn by working in NY.

MA can tax ALL your income from any source, including your NY income.

You'll be able to claim a credit on your MA return for the taxes you pay to NY on the portion of your income that is taxed by both states.  So in effect you will not be double-taxed on that income.
