Thank you for reply. 

Yes, basic does have resident/non resident state section at bottom of the Fed Info sheet.  I have Ohio full time resident and WV as non resident state. 

On the WV info the box checked is Non-resident.  When I uncheck the non-resident box and try to check the non-resident special, a warning box comes up and says "Special non-resident box should not be checked since there were no payments or withholdings to West Virginia."

I went back and checked my 1099G info in the federal and I have the West Virginia unemployment compensation amount and the federal withholding amount and also the West Virginia State income tax withheld.  

Ohio and West Virginia are reciprocal states.  That is why I dont understand why it will not let me check the non-resident special box.  

The only thing I can think of is because the income was not wages or salary, it was unemployment compensation.
