Hello, I live in Florida so I don’t have an employer ID for Box 15. How can I still e-file my taxes without that number? TurboTax is not allowing me.

You are talking about the employer ID in box b on your W-2? Every company in the US should have an EIN, no matter where they are and what state you live in.

If you are talking about an ID for box 15, if you have no entry in box 16, you should leave boxes 15, 16, and 17 blank.
