It depends. Your spouse's income is not taxed in RI because the income was not earned there and you do not live there. However, it is factored in. Many states will calculate how much tax you would pay on all of your income, and then actually tax you on the percentage of your income actually earned there. So, while you may see your spouse's income listed on the tax return, it should not be taxed.
In addition, you will still receive a credit for your taxes paid to Rhode Island on your Massachusetts return. If you have prepared the nonresident return first, it will make it easier for TurboTax to correctly calculate this information.
