Remove FL from the state. There is no reason to have it there. This will tell TurboTax there is nothing for the state and should allow you to file your return.
I removed FL from box 15, but it now gives me a new error - stating that I need to include the state ID code.
This W-2 relates to a small amount of money that I receive each year from Fidelity (each year since 2005), relating to a 'Non-Qualified" plan that was established by a previous (very large) employer years ago. Note that box 11 of the W-2 identifies this income as as a Nonqualified plan.
As indicated, this error did not get flagged as an error in my 2022 return, and that year, just as this year, had the exact same information on the W-2. How do I get around this error?
I called Intuit and reviewed the issue. After allowing a representative view the message, then check with their "experts", I was informed that there was no workaround to the error message. I removed all information from boxes 15, 16 and 17, since there is no state income tax, and submitted the return. The frustrating aspect is that this problem has not arisen in previous years - the error message only shows up in a TurboTax worksheet that is created by the program. The tax forms submitted to the IRS are not affected - the income is reported correctly.
Is this the only form with a reference to Florida?
As noted above if there are no entries in boxes 15, 16, and 17, then there is no reason for TurboTax to worry about that state.
Do you perhaps have a 1099-R referring to Florida? Do you have another W-2 that needs to be deleted and re-entered by hand?
Still have questions?
