In that case, please try simply leaving the address field blank on the W-2 entry screen. This assumes, of course, that your W-2 is otherwise accurate, and that it contains your employer's United States federal EIN (Employer Income Tax Number). This EIN number should be 9-digits long, and look something like the format 73-1234567. That number, your Social Security Number, and your wage data (Boxes 1 through 20 on the W2) are actually all that is transmitted to the IRS.

Alternatively, try entering a US address for your Canadian employer, if they have a local office in the US.

If neither of these options work for you, then please give us a call at customer service, so we can help you further by actually looking at your program screen. A live tax expert can walk you through your TurboTax entries, and surely find a workable solution for you. As a TurboTax Self-Employed online customer, the call is free to you. Here is a link where you can create a support ticket and reach us:
