Dealing with non-resident - remote work- state returns

My Wife and I both work remote from Michigan, 100% remote for companies in Missouri and Georgia (non residents).

 

When going through the Intuit premier software we added the extra states in our information because we earned income from these states. We purchased the extra state returns and entered in the portions of our earning applicable to the MO and GA returns.  Both of our w-2's only had taxes taken out for out residency state, MI. Once the earning were entered in for MO, we started to see a refund for Michigan go up. The return for Michigan was not as high as the amount owed for MO.

 

Does this sound like I am going about this correctly? When money is owed to another non-residency state, does your residency state refund you the percentage of taxes you paid it? Since MO is higher income tax, I seem to owe more than I paid to Michigan (I assume).

 

Thanks for any feedback!
