I'm not sure why the import of your W-2 forms is not working properly. The remedy is to edit the W-2 entries and enter the missing numbers manually.

You do not need to delete the W-2.  Compare the entries to your paper copy of the W-2 and correct the entries that are in error.

 

Hopefully, you will find that the state withholding needs to be added.

 

In TurboTax Online, manually correct the entries on your IRS form W-2.

 

  • Down the left side of the screen, click on Federal.
  • Down the left side of the screen, click on Wages & Income.
  • Click to the right of Job (W-2).
  • Click the down arrow to the right and select Edit.
