Can I report lawsuit settlement wages from out of state in TurboTax?

I see where to report this Miscellaneous Income but I can't figure out how to clarify that it came from another state where I believe taxes are expected.

Enter the income on the Federal return, when you finish the Federal and start your state tax return, you'll need to generate a return for the state in question and then allocate that amount to that state. In almost all situations, income earned in a state is taxable income for that state.
