I work in NH but live in Maine. My w2 box 16 for Maine state wages is blank. TurboTax won't let me efile with this. what should I do? I already paid for the efile.  Do I enter what does not exist on the form?  The state income tax withheld is in box 17.  Do I enter Wages from Box 1 under the Federal section?

You may have inadvertently made a space in that field with your space bar or somethin and now it expects a value.  Since box 16 is blank, which means you paid no Maine state wages, try typing I a '0' in that field.
