I just need clarification on where I was considered to earn income in Virginia even though my State of legal residence is Pennsylvania.

I am a military member and I'm on the section after it asks where I was stationed last year. I just need to know if i would select the option on the next page that asks if I lived in one state and worked in another. If so would i select the state I am a residence in or would I select the state I worked in. I'm just a bit confused. Thanks for any help.

No, you only need to select your state of residency.  Please see this FAQ for more information: https://ttlc.intuit.com/replies/3300147

According to rules for military, you work and “live” in the same state:  Pennsylvania (even if you were stationed elsewhere).  You would only file a Virginia return if you did work in Virginia that was not active duty military.
