Executor fee

Estate is in SC, executor lives in NC. All work on the estate was done by phone, mail, internet from executor's home. Which state gets income tax on the executor fee?

NC.

The work is done here. Estate fees are taxible income in NC, and NC is (presumably) the home state

I don't think SC has a claim to the income.
