Lost in NJ filing

I am remotely working for a company in NJ.   I reside in CA.  As such, I am filing as a non-resident in NJ.  At one point, in the NJ tax return, Turbotax asks about "partnership income."  I have a few Schedule K-1 (Form 1065) for investment made in CA with CA retirement funds.  

 

I managed to enter one of two of the schedule K-1 but there is no place in the NJ return to enter the second K-1.  What do I do?  Someone in the forum mention adding the forms along with the return to the NJ authorities.  But I am electronically filing.  I am not even sure Turbotax will allow attachment along with the returns to sent together.

 

How do I handle this problem?  I should have never invested in a "partnership." Its my brother's fault.  Before I make him buy me dinner, how do I handle the NJ return as a non-resident, in particular, the section about partnership?  Thank you.

    Does not appear like you have any reason to file a NJ return, unless they withheld taxes from a w2 job and need to get that return. If you work remotely in California, they should not withhold NJ taxes. 

    The 1065 activity is only California income based on  the information given.

    ZoltanB45:  NJ did withhold and I am trying to get it back.  What's the best way?  Thank you.
