Bonus tax withheld for both NY and PA - how much should I get back?

Looking for some help as I'm a bit confused on credit for taxes paid to another state. I graduated and started a job with a company in NYC in July. They paid me a signing bonus in May when I was still living in PA.

 

Using illustrative numbers: say the bonus was $10k and they withheld $1k for NY state tax and $500 for PA state tax. Only NY state tax was withheld from future pay stubs as I moved to NYC right before my job started. When I file, how much should I get back for credit for taxes paid to another state? And how should this credit be split among the two tax returns?
