Live in NJ, unemployment compensation due to COVID in NY. How to allocate?

I live in NJ and due to COVID, I was out of work since 3/2020. I work in NY and collected unemployment from NY state for 2020. In the state taxes, I'm stuck at the NY Allocation step. When it shows the Dividends, Interest and Unemployment Compensation with the Federal amounts, do I have to allocate the full amount of the unemployment compensation in the NY input field or do I leave it as '0'?

 

Thanks!

Yes, if the Unemployment was from working a job in New York state, you must allocate it as New York source income.
