What should be included in state income tax box on form W2. Client paid employee portion of FICA tax for household employee. This was included in box 1 of W2 but not boxes 3 and 5 . Should boxes 16 and 18 include the amount of FICA tax paid for the household employee?

Boxes 16 and 18 have nothing to do with FICA.

If you grossed up the income in Box 1 to cover the employee portion of FICA that was paid by the employer, then I believe you'll use that same grossed up figure as state wages as well.
