After you complete your federal tax return and you move to the State Taxes sections, both your non-resident state and resident state returns will be listed.  Prepare your non-resident  tax return first. Depending upon the state you live in, you may get a credit on your resident tax return if you paid taxes on you non-resident return.

For additional information, refer to the TurboTax Help articles Do I have to file tax returns in more than one state?,  Why would I have to file a nonresident state return? and How do I file a nonresident state return?
