State tax filing

I am a full time resident of PA. I received Unemployment from NY because I used to work there. I now understand that I do have to pay tax on the unemployment from NY on a NY non-resident tax form. Do you know if this would apply to all states or maybe just NY does this. I see a lot of comments that you pay where you reside not where it came from. Also in the Turbo Tax software the section for unemployment implies or suggests that you do not need to include it. I see that it can be overwritten so that was a mistake I made on my 2020 NY non-resident return and now I am paying interest plus penalty. I will have to do this again in 2021 since I received my only income from NY unemployment. In addition Turbo Tax says that I shouldn't need to purchase a NY non-resident return for 2021 but I really need to. This may be a small bug in its system.
