Eight states — AK, FL, NV, SD, TN, TX, WA, and WY — levy no state income tax.

Washington has not state income tax. Is box 17 blank or 0? Leave boxes 15, `16 & 17 BLANK, empty, no spaces.

Delete the ''WA'' out of Box 15. It will give you a warning, but you can click Continue and move past the warning. It won't prevent e-filing. Washington State doesn't have an income tax so the rest of the boxes on that line should be blank.
