Since you filled out the non-resident VA return first, there should be some numbers populated in the Other State Tax Credit section automatically. Take a closer look at those and be sure you do not need to change anything.
As for the income earned in VA subject to NC tax, that would typically be box 1 of your W-2. If you had other income reported on your tax return such as interest or dividends, that would be considered to be earned in NC, your resident state.
Also, you need to look at the non-resident VA return to see if you are paying any tax at all to VA. If all of your withholdings are being refunded, that means that your taxes paid to VA should be zero. The amount that was previously withheld from your earnings is not considered to be taxes paid to the state in this context. So, when you make that correction, the NC credit for taxes paid to another state should disappear, along with the double-dipping.
