Appealing my New York State refund from 2020

I live in NJ and work for a company in NY city. I received a letter in the beginning of March 2020 from NYS stating that I need to prove my NJ residency. I assumed this was a random type of audit. So after submitting the documentation needed I waited the two weeks before calling to see what the outcome was. Now to be clear I have been working from home for this same company since 2006 and always filed the non-resident tax form for NY every year. Also I have been at my current address since June 2015 and never had an issue when filing. However NYS has made the decision that somehow I’m a NY resident and therefore my refund has been slashed from $2756 to $929! How do I go about appealing this? The information they are basing this decision on is completely wrong!
