Maine state taxe for nonresident

I'm following the prompts for Main state tax.  I'm a nonresident that worked partly inside and out of the state.

 

The page on my screen says "Income Allocation" and asks for "Portion of Wages to be Allocated".   What do I put in there?

 

My assumption is to enter a percentage or dollar amount for how much money I made in Maine?  However the page doesnt have any links to anything that helps me know what it is asking for.

 

Can anyone help me out?

Yes, you are correct that you would enter only your Maine income and tax paid there on your Non-Resident Maine return.

On my 2018 return I had done with H&R block, there is line 23 for nonresident credit.  I dont see that question on turbotax for schedule NR.

 

How do I get this credit?

You might want to go through the Maine non-resident questions again.

 

The credit is dependent on type of non-resident income.
