Two State Returns, Second Shows $0?

So I'm filing in both AZ and PA (moved from PA to AZ for a new job), and I've completed both state returns, the AZ one first. When I go to wrap up all my statements, it says I'm getting back $257 from AZ, and $0 from PA. Is this a glitch?

You would file a Part-Year Return to both Arizona and Pennsylvania, reporting to each state only the Income Earned and Taxes Paid there.

Since I can't see your returns, I can't say whether this was done correctly. If you earned income and paid tax to both states and this was shown on your W-2's, TurboTax would split the income/taxes for you on both returns.

Try doing PA first, then AZ to see if anything changes.

I did indeed choose part-year resident for both. I'll scrap the entire states return and try it out. One thing I did notice is that at the end of the summary of the AZ return, it does say "Your Total State Refund is $257". Just thought it odd that it said that prior to even starting the PA one. I'll try it out and report back. Thank you for your help and time!
