You may receive a message like:

ZIP code is invalid for Electronic Filing. You must enter a valid ZIP code for your state. Enter a correct ZIP code in this format 'nnnnn' or 'nnnnn-nnnn'

TurboTax follows the IRS guidelines for acceptable ZIP codes. If the two-letter state abbreviation doesn't match the ZIP code, you'll receive this error when attempting to e-file.

Solution

If you receive this error:

• Double-check you entered the correct two-letter state code
• Make sure you've entered the ZIP code in either 5-digit or 9-digit format (for example 12345 or 12345-6789)
• Look up the correct ZIP code for the street address in question

If this doesn't work, try some troubleshooting steps:

Check your Internet connection. Hardwired connections work best.

This is what I initially thought - the wrong zip format, but I tried both and it didn't help.

Then I called the support team, and we carefully read the error message: Zip should be blank. This means that I should delete the entered zip. The same issue was with the state—State should be blank. After I deleted both field values, the form was accepted.
