Tn state taxes

@mellienbryant69 can you clarify if there was an amount in box 17 as well? If you lived and worked in Tennessee, I wouldn't expect there to be anything in Box 17.

 

If there was an amount in Box 16, and nothing in 17, leave Box 16 blank.  It will not cause an issue because there is no Tennessee return that will pull data from box 16.

Tn state taxes

 There are now 8 states that do not tax their residents’ income: Alaska, Florida, Nevada, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Washington, and Wyoming. If your state is not listed in the W2 box 15 drop down list it doesn’t have an income tax.  Leave W2 boxes 15,16, & 17 BLANK, empty, no spaces.
