Moved MA to NH 1/1/2024 but didn't tell employer until april, can i get mass state taxes paid back?

in 2023 my wife and i primary residence was massachusetts. We also have a vacation house in new hampshire.

in 2024 we moved to nh as our primary residence. i informed my employeer of this change in april 2024.

so did my wife. my wife's employer returned the Mass income tax she had already paid. it was like $3000.

my employer did not.

now i am filing my 2024 federal income taxes and i am wondering if i can file a massachusetts return to get a credit back of the $4000 i paid in massachusetts income tax before i notified my employer in April.

I went thru TurboTax and it says not only do i not get that tax back but i owe $74.

it seems odd to have my wifes employer and associated tax be treated different from mine.

any thoughts?
