In the My Info section of the program for you personal information, where asked for your resident state, scroll to the bottom of the state list in the dropdown and select Foreign or US Possession.  Where asked if you lived in any other states, answer NO.

Thanks - I did that but then when I continue with the app, I get:

We need to know a little more information

We noticed that you didn’t enter the state where you live at the beginning of your federal return.

We recommend entering this information and completing your federal return before starting your state return. Finishing your federal return first helps ensure a complete and accurate state return.

Select the Personal Info tab to enter your state and (if necessary) complete your federal return.

If you already completed your federal return and would like to start your state return, select Choose State below.
