Unemployment non resident state

I live in ME but lost my part-time job in MA during covid, I chose to file for Unemployment in MA.

I was eligible based on my earnings for past 5 qtrs working, 1 of which was in MA and rest in ME.

For the MA State return, it is asking for the non-MA portion of my Unemployment.

"If all of the unemployment compensation you received is related to Prior work in Massachusetts enter 0 for the Non-MA Portion."

Most of my Prior work was in ME, can i enter the full amount of my Unemployment as non-MA?

ME is favorable as it gives the $10,200 tax break on unemployment but MA does not.

thanks
