Same employer and EIN W2, two states, one state non resident, second state nonresident, how to fill out W2 section

Hello, 

 

I have a W2 with two states for one employer (same EIN for both states). First state is IL, where I was a nonresident for all 2021 and the second state is NC where I was a resident for all 2021. This is because I hadn't told my employer my correct address right away. 

 

I read a thread that said to add additional rows for different states. However, when I do this, I get a SMART check error saying that there are "Duplicate entry for box 12."

 

1. For my situation, can I confirm how I should submit the W2 section? I have added NC and IL separately and put NC first. Is this correct?

 

Or should sum up the taxes and wages for both states and put in one line? Or should I be doing something completely different?

 

2. If I use the additional rows for each state, do I bypass the SMART check error and will I be able to submit my return or will it be blocked?

 

Thanks!
