What you gotta do us convince your employer to stop withholding NY tax.  I think your accountant is right, you should get a full refund.   Your employer is just doing what's easiest for him (make you explain to the NYS Department of Taxation and Finance why you don't owe tax, instead of him).  Maybe after you show them you got a full refund the first year, they'll stop.
