To clarify, is your address in a foreign country?  What are of the Turbo Tax program does this appear because there are no drop downs that look like the one you sent in the screenshot.? Is this related to a Foreign Tax Credit? Are there more choices other than Mexico and Canada?

Try going back to your Personal Info section in the Federal return, and reviewing your responses. Then review your California questionnaire. It may have a question asking for your state or country of domicile that should list all of the states.
