I am a permanent resident of WA but have nonresident (or part-year) resident for CA and NJ. I'm trying to figure out how to input the tax correctly so that I don't get double taxed but also pay the correct amount...

For your NJ tax return, you will remove the CA wages. For your CA tax return, you will allocate your income based on the income that you made when you were in CA.
Review the TurboTax article Multiple States - Figuring What's Owed When You Live and Work in More Than One State for additional information.
Also, review How do I allocate (split) income for a part-year state return? for further explanation.
Thank you! So for CA income allocation, it is not based on what is shown in the W2 correct?
Correct. You need to allocate the income based on how much income you earned while living/working in CA versus the other states.
For ways to do that, please check Earned Income allocation.
