Entering W-2 info boxes 15-17 for multiple states
Live in Delaware and work in New Jersey. My employer withheld income tax for both states on my W-2. I'm not sure how to enter the info in Turbotax for boxes 15-17. I'm assuming I select New Jersey for box 15 and box 16 would just be the state wages for NJ (the state in which the income was earned). Then for box 17, I'd enter income tax withheld using two separate entries- one for NJ and one for DE (as it is broken down on my W-2). However, Turbotax keeps giving the error message "the state in box 15 should only appear once". I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong and Turbotax will not allow me to complete my FEDERAL taxes without fixing the W-2 "error" related to STATE tax info.
