Get your taxes done using TurboTax

The program is correct.

Your legal state of residence can tax ALL your income, regardless of where you earned it.

A non-resident state can tax you only on income earned within its borders.

Therefore if you have non-resident state income, you must file both a non-resident state return AND a home state return.  (The only exception is if the two states have 'tax reciprocity'.) You'll be able to take a credit on your home state return for taxes paid to the non-resident state, so you won't be double-taxed.
