State tax filing
No. If you are filing nonresident income tax return, only report income from the nonresident state. Every state program is different, but you will generally see an allocation screen listing a federal amount and a state amount. All the state amounts should be $0 for the nonresident state except your spouse's earnings.
Many states start with federal income to create a base tax rate. If that is the case for your nonresident state, then your income will be indirectly included on the nonresident return. In these states, tax is computed by calculating the tax rate on all income and multiplying it by ()other state income ÷ total income) to get the actual tax liability.
