One employer issued to the tax payer a NY W-2 which is all of her wages and a CA W-2 which is only the wages she earned after moving to CA. How do I enter this in the initial wages section above box 12?

It's one W2. It's multiple Pages. That's because of the State reporting.

NY taxes everything sourced to NY. That's why it matches the Fed.

CA is for the Resident period.

Just treat like one long W2, with the same Fed info on each page.
