State tax filing

As TomD8 states MA does not tax alimony payments received by non-residents that are not MA source income.  After entering the alimony received in the federal interview, you can "Edit/Continue" the MA nonresident return interview in step-by-step mode.  "Update" the "Adjustments" section.  In the allocation pages you will find the "Taxable Alimony" amount which you can enter into the "Non-MA" box to exclude it from MA taxes.
