State tax filing

I am having the same issue.   My husband only works in RI, but we live in MA.   His employer gave him two W2s.   Both RI and MA box 16 has his entire RI income of 90k in it.   I did complete our RI return first.   When I get to MA, it initially has our income as $180k (plus my income.).  When I get to the part where it asks if it’s reporting income earned in another state, it eventually takes that down to the 90k again.   But really, that 90k was not earned in MA.   Shouldn’t his MA box 16 be $0?    Does he need a corrected W2?
