Get your taxes done using TurboTax

for the W-2 I have  $0 state wages (Box 16) I was advised to report 0 taxes withheld (Box 17). That solved the problem of wages less than withholding. 

Then I used the TT option for reporting other taxes - withholding not already entered on a W-2.  There is a placeholder to report amount actually withheld to the State.  See image below.

This a much cleaner solution and does not require the additional calculations that follow from the above answer.
