What you need to do is complete your federal return first. Then, start the state return for the state you do not live in, or the one you moved away from during the year. When you're done with that return, start one for your current state or the one you live in now.

 

Be mindful of a "credit for taxes paid to another state" option, as that will allow you to deduct the taxes you paid in one state off of your taxes paid in your resident state.
