When submitting taxes for State I recevie the error "No wages were entered"

A resident is taxed on all of his or her taxable income whether it is received from sources inside or outside Pennsylvania.

 

Make sure you've filled out the Personal Info section correctly:

 

1. With your return open, select My Info in the menu.
2. On the Personal info summary screen, scroll down to Other State Income, and select Edit.
3. At the Did you make money in any other states? question, answer Yes and make sure your nonresident state(s) are selected from the drop-down.
4. Select Continue to return to your Personal info summary.

After you finish your federal return, you'll automatically move to the State tab, where you'll see your nonresident state(s) listed in addition to your resident state.

Tip: To ensure accurate calculations, always complete the nonresident return first if filing in multiple states because your resident state might give you a credit for any taxes paid in that situation.

Also:

• Select the long form (if the option is available) even if TurboTax defaults to the short form.
• Only report the income attributable to the nonresident state.
• If preparing a nonresident return solely to recover erroneous tax withholdings, enter 0 on the screen that asks for the amount of income earned in that state. This will eliminate your tax liability for that state, resulting in a full refund.
• If you live in a reciprocal state, consider submitting an exemption form to your employer so you don't have to file a nonresident return next year.

In my Personal Info Summary I have my Residence set to Pennsylvania, and further down I have my Other State Income set to Florida.  The Non-Resident Return is for Florida and it tells me I do not need to do it unless I operate a farm or business in Florida.

 

Just to see if things would change I chose "add state" at the bottom, continue the steps, tell it that I do not want to prepare form DR-405 (for Business or Farm in FL).  This changes Florida to "Reviewed" status.  I then deleted Pennsylvania as a state (just so I can start from scratch) and then "Add another state".  I add Pennsylvania and go through all the settings and then after the "Unreimbursed job expenses" screen (no options) I click Continue it still comes back to the screen stating:

 

No wages were entered

 

We don't show any taxable wages on this Pennsylvania tax return. We usually expect to see wages earned when expenses are taken.

If you don't expect to enter any wages for Pennsylvania make sure you choose Edit Expenses below to remove your employee expenses from this tax return.

It just seems like it isn't pulling the information over from the Federal to the State, as it seems like it thinks I made no income for PA to tax me on, which I know is not correct.

You need to add the state wages to the W-2 if you live in PA.    It is the only way to get PA to recognize the income.   Delete that Florida return though, you don't need it, you can remove FL from the Other State Income box.   

 

Add PA and the employer ID in box 15, enter your wages in box 16 and leave 17 blank.   This will be enough to put the income on the PA return.   Of course, you will not get a credit from FL, since we have no income tax here...
