Information. Because of state programming requirements, TurboTax
includes both income lines as part of the NJ income. The next screen is
titled Let's Confirm Your Taxable State Wages from (Employer). If you see two boxes there, click on the one that does not say NJ to remove the excess wages.
Thanks for the help; but ...

first entry is Wages and Salary which has the combined amount ... How
should I go about getting to the screens to fix the income?
