Should I include all wages (W2 box1) or State wages (W2 box 16) on NJ1040NR line 15 column A ?

I filed NJ 1040NR thru turbo-tax, and now NJ wants additional information including Page 3 Part II . When I look at that form the data is not filled in.

If all the income on your W-2 was earned in New Jersey, then you are correct that Box 16 (State Wages) should be the same amount as Box 1 (Total Wages).

If it is not, the amount in Box 16 should reflect what was actually earned in New Jersey.
