The code for the South Milwaukee School District is 5439.
You can try a number of options to see if these fix an "invalid code" error.
1). Clear the "error" field.
- Delete the code entirely and leave the box blank.
- Go to the next screen (just ignore any program "objections").
- Go back to the school district screen and try typing 5439 again.
2). Make sure you selected "City" for South Milwaukee. If you accidentally selected "Town" or "Village," the software won't recognize "5439" as a valid match for that municipality type.
3). For TurboTax Online: Clear your browser cache and cookies (the software should pull the most recent validation rules from the server).
Clear your Cache
Your browser stores recently visited webpages as temporary files in a cache, which enables the pages to load more quickly when revisited.
However, a full or corrupted cache can cause problems in TurboTax, so sometimes you need to clear your cache (that is, remove these temporary files).

Cookies are small files that temporarily store data on your computer. We use them to personalize your experience so you see information you already entered and not items that are irrelevant or repetitive.
On rare occasions, they may make your browser think you already did something that you still need to do. To fix that, you'll need to delete (clear) the cookies from your browser.
