Yes, you will need to select "yes" to " Did you make money in any other states?" under the Personal Information section in TurboTax (see screenshot).

Additionally, you can add a state under the state taxes tab.

If you are a permanent resident of NY but were in VA on a temporary basis and earned income in VA, then you will need to file a VA nonresident state income tax return (for your VA source income only - your VA wages). You will also need to file a NY resident state tax return (for all income from all sources including VA wages). You will get a state income tax credit in NY for any VA state income taxes that you paid on your nonresident VA state income tax return.

You will want to work on your nonresident VA state income tax return first. You will then take a tax credit from your nonresident VA state income taxes on your resident NY state income tax return. (Please note that you will only get a tax credit for your VA state income taxes up to the amount of NY state income taxes that would have been paid if the income was earned in NY).  The credit for taxes paid to another state section will be at the end of your residence state's interview process.

Just follow the TurboTax guide when working on your states (remembering to do your nonresident state return first) and TurboTax will do all the calculations and credits to your resident states return

Here is additional information about filing in multiple states (select "see more answer" to view the entire attachment)
