You need to enter your Forms W-2 as they are. Answer all follow-up TurboTax prompts that you get when you to enter your W-2 income.
Do not change the amounts on your W-2 when entering it . Let the program account for it. Unless you feel that your W-2 amounts are actually incorrect, then get a corrected one from your employer.
You will be filing two state returns one for California (Non Resident) and one for Washington (Resident).
When entering your state tax returns, when multiple states are involved, you should enter your nonresidential state tax return first (CA).
Then enter your residential state tax return (WA).
It is recommended to prepare the nonresident state first, because your resident state will provide you a credit for the tax you pay to the nonresident state. By preparing the nonresident state first, TurboTax can transfer the credit information to your resident state to return.
Turbo tax will take the information from you W-2 and your State returns and if you have had too much taken out for CA you will get a refund on that state return.
