I live in NY but received retirement distribution earned in NC. Do I pay state tax to NY or NC?

I lived in NC from 2004 until 2014.  In 2014, I moved to NY.  I now work and live in NY only.  At age 60, I took the total distribution of the NC retirement plan.  Do I pay state tax to NC or NY?

You only pay taxes to the state where you live (NY) for the retirement distribution, not the state where the distribution originated (NC).
