State tax filing

In TurboTax, you must complete the non-resident state tax return first, before you do your home state return, in order for the program to correctly calculate and apply the "other state" credit.

 

That's because the credit is granted by your resident state.  The program doesn't "know" the amount of the credit unless you finish the non-resident state return first.
