That thread you reference does not work for Massachusetts. If you alter what is on the W2 you will create a reject. Instead, report what is on the W2 as written. If there is nothing reported to NC, then it will be necessary to adjust this on the North Carolina return.
There may be a location in the North Carolina return that allows you to override what imports from the Federal return. If that's the case, you will allocate or designate in that area how much income is North Carolina resident income, and that way claim a credit for taxes you pay to Massachusetts on the income common to and taxed by both.
