There is no state tax in Tennessee. It’s not letting me file cuz it said I need to file state taxes. How do I get around this?

What state does the program indicate you need to file?

The program would not insist that you file a Tennessee state tax return because that state tax program does not exist.

First, make sure you have not selected any additional states in your 'My Info' section.  When you click on Prepare State, if there is a state listed you can use the trash can beside it to delete it.

 

Check your W-2 to be sure the state name and withholding is blank by using the delete key when in those boxes. Next use the link below to delete a state which should resolve your issue.

Please update here if you still need assistance.
