Massachusetts is somewhat convoluted in how it puts this on the return. The question is really simpler: How much income did you earn for which you are being taxed in Connecticut. Massachusetts will then calculate a credit on the amount of tax you pay to Connecticut on this double-taxed income (income taxed by both states). Your credit will be the lower of what Connecticut taxes the income or what Massachusetts taxes the income.
