Several  states do not have a state income tax.  So these states will not show up in certain drop down lists.   Leave boxes 15, 16, and 17 blank when you enter a W-2 for these states.

 

Alaska, Florida, Nevada, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Washington and Wyoming

This is actually a glitch. TurboTax is aware of it and working on it.

 

In the mean time, most people can just leave boxes 15-17 blank at the W-2 screen, because TN does not have an income tax.

Nope, it won't let me go past it. I have to choose a state or it won't go forward.  So, I guess I've just wasted precious time signing up on a system that does not work.  Just peachy!

TN does not have an income tax.  Leave boxes 15,16, & 17 BLANK, empty, no spaces.
