My wife and I live in Colorado. I had an extended work assignment (1 month) in New Jersey, and my wife took a small IRA distribution. Can New Jersey tax the distribution?

We normally file in Colorado only but also filed in New Jersey because I was working there; my wife stayed in Colorado and never set foot in NJ. The IRA distribution was in her name only. Turbotax asked if the distribution was nontaxable in New Jersey, but I'm not sure how to answer.

No, you that is not taxable by New Jersey.  Only the income you earned while working in New Jersey is taxable by New Jersey.
