Georgia charge my income not earned from Georgia, how to avoid it?

I live in California but have a little bit of investment income from Georgia. When I filed my Georgia state tax using TurboTax, I found some of my income from California was taxed in both California and Georgia, how should I fix it? 

Thanks

Your home state of CA will grant you a credit for the tax you pay to GA on any income that is taxed by both states.  For this to work in TurboTax, you must complete the non-resident GA tax return before you do the home state CA return.
