Live in one state, work in another?

I live in Ohio, but work in Kentucky. I know the two are reciprocal on State taxes, my employer only takes out for OHIO taxes. 

Now, the part I can never seem to remember is when starting to file on Turbo Tax, how do I answer the question " Did you make money from any other state?" IIRC, if I select yes, Turbo Tax wants me to file a Kentucky State tax form, even though they don't withhold Kentucky State tax from my check. Do I select "NO" in my situation?

Q.  Do I select "NO" in my situation? 

A. Yes. 

 

In the personal info section, when it asks if you made money in another state, answer NO, per the reciprocal state instructions, on that page. This will prevent TurboTax from thinking you need to file a KY return.

That's what I thought, thank you for confirming!
