State tax filing

I have a strange situation regarding this part of the Turbo Tax return. When reviewing the State tax information (we live in New Jersey), Turbo Tax brings up the review screen where you can click "Remove this income" and shows my wife's income listed as a single line. She works and lives in New Jersey (as opposed to what appears to be the normal reason this would appear, when someone lives in NJ and works in NY for example) so I am not sure why this appears. If I click the "Remove this income" box and click Continue, our State refund goes up by many thousands of dollars which makes me suspicious. Turbo Tax is not (and has never) prompted for this same information relating to my W2 (I also live and work in NJ). Any insight in to why this may be occurring?
