You need to file 2 state tax returns: 1) a Virginia non-resident tax return 2) a Delaware resident tax return. If you have enter wage information correctly in your federal return, the information should populate correctly into your state returns.

Rule of thumb, prepare your Virginia non-resident return first and then your Delaware return. this way, you will get a tax credit in Delaware for the taxes you paid in Virginia. Don't do anything additional in return as the amounts may not populate correctly. What happens is that you may receive a refund in one state and owe taxes in another. The reason i say this is that usually there will not be a "0" amount showing anywhere in a return given these same set of circumstances.
