Form 540NR (Never Lived In CA)

I have never lived in California, however, my employer reported my income as a California resident during the year 2018.  I was advised to submit Form 540NR.  However, I'm unsure how to fill out the California Taxable Income section. 

 

Box 16 on my W2 shows $0. I enter that in Line 12 within the 540NR short form but I'm not sure this is correct.

 

Who could I contact to make sure this is submitted correctly? The instructions provided are not clear as they use terms I'm unfamiliar with.
