Form CA(540NR) California Adjustments Form - what amount goes on Line 1 Box E - the federal wages or the state wages?

The first time I entered the W2s for CA, it used State wages. I received a corrected W2 and changed those wages in Turbotax. However, the amount on Line 1 Box E did not change. I have checked off that it a corrected W2 in the W2 input sheet. There is a difference between federal and state wages on the W2.

    Section A Line 1 Column E of Schedule CA (540NR) should show your California income (income earned or received as a CA resident + income earned or received from CA sources as a non-resident).
