Really it doesn't matter what you do or don't do you never know what NY will do. I left NY years ago and moved to GA. 6 years after that move I received a bill for unpaid taxes from NY for over $6,000. I guess it didn't matter to NY that the W-2's showed GA.
Fortunately I was an anal retentive accountant and had all my tax information for the year in question showing I was a resident of GA and paid taxes there. That took care of the issue. So the best advice I can give you is keep your documentation just in case some NY state tax "professional" doesn't do their job correctly.
