This is not a TurboTax error; it is the result of the unusual way that New York does tax for part-year and nonresidents. It only appears that New York is taxing you on all your income. See Form IT-203.
Yes, your state income is on line 31, and yes, line 32 comes from the federal amount on line 31, not the state amount.
However, down on line 45, TurboTax calculates a ratio of your state income to your federal income (see that?). This results in an allocated (to New York) tax on line 46.
In other words, NYS calculates tax based on your federal income, then reduces it by the ratio of NY income to federal income.
Make sense?
