If you live in New Jersey, all your income will be taxed there. You would get a credit on your NJ return for any tax paid to NY on the same wages. so you're not double-taxed. If you can open your 2024 return and look at your W-2 entry, I'm wondering if you have something odd in the State section there.
In Box 15, you should have NJ with an amount of Wages in Box 16, and amount of tax paid to NJ in Box 17. If the Wages in Box 16 are less than Box 1, TurboTax may have added them together in order to report your total income to NJ.
If you have NY in Box 15, and an amount of Wages in 16, and a Tax in Box 17, again the wages in 16 may have been added to Box 1 to report the total to NJ. If you can share what is in those boxes on your W-2, we'll try to help.
