Wage Calculations for California Nonresident Filing

Last year, from Jan to Nov, I worked for a California company from a different state.  During this time, I worked mostly remotely from my domiciled state (~70%) and traveled to California as work required (~30%.)  I'm trying to figure out my source income from CA.  Looking at my W2, I see only one line for wages and one line item for CA tax withheld and no breakdown between CA and my state of residence.

 

When filing California Nonresident tax forms, do I need to adjust the wages (by 30%) or does the W2 need to be corrected to show wage breakdown and tax withheld between CA and my state of residence?

 

From TurboTax  standpoint, the workflow is prompting me to enter the amount earned from California.  I just wasn't sure if I can (or allowed to) modify the wages listed in the W2.

 

Any guidance is much appreciated.  I also contacted the Franchise Tax Board but didn't get much help or direction.
