Speak with your employer. New York follows the "convenience of the employer" rule.

 

If your home office is New York and you work out of state for "your convenience" rather than out of a business necessity, then you are liable for New York tax.

 

If your employer made a mistake, you can file a nonresident New York return and get back all your withholding.

 

If you have to pay New York tax, Connecticut will give you credit for tax paid to New York.
