I am a VA resident but PA employer withheld PA state tax. How to file PA tax return amend for prior years and claim refund for future?

Recently, VA taxation informs me that I couldn’t claim VA tax credit for the tax paid to PA. So, VA disallows my credit and require to pay additional tax and interest. I already make payment to VA, but does anyone could help to answer two questions? Thank you!
