Form TC-40W Utah withholding ID number is wrong and needs to be changed. How would I go about that?

You will need to update the state ID number for the form W2 in question.  While this number doesn't affect your tax calculations for UT, it does affect e-filing steps. 

1. In the "Wages and Income" section go back to the "Job W2" topic and
2. "Edit" the W2.  
3. Go down to the state/local area in the form W2 entries.  
4. Delete/backspace to completely eliminate any stray marks in box 15.   

The Utah withholding account number is a 14-character number. The first eleven characters are numeric and the last three are “WTH.” Do not enter hyphens. Example: 12345678901WTH.  The letters should be lowercase.

 I thought the last 3 letters had to be Upper Case... Try that and post back if it works.

Delete the entire ID number, and click in another box before editing in the new one...sometime a case change doesn't take unless you blank out the entry entirely first.

But it does need to be done on each and every form that had a state line in it showing UT withholding.

Usually W-2 and 1099-R forms, but occasionally a few others.
