As a resident, you will report all of your income to New York State since since you are domiciled in the state. Your domicile is your permanent and primary residence that you intend to return to and/or remain in after being away (for example, temporary leave due to Covid-19). All of your income is taxable by New York State.
You should not be required to file a non-resident return in another state unless you worked in that state during the time you temporarily relocated. If that is the case, you would report that income on a non-resident return and get a credit on your NYS tax return for taxes paid to another state.
If at the end of seven months you permanently moved to California, then you would file a part-year New York tax return for the time up until your official move to California. Then, you would file a part-year California return for the 1.5 remaining months.
However, even after you relocate, you have to enter the amount of your unemployment that was received as a nonresident resulting from your employment in New York State. If your unemployment compensation received was a benefit for working solely in New York State, then you would allocate your entire unemployment to your non-resident/part-year New York State tax return.
