If you are putting it by mistake in the US zip code field, that number you mentioned is for a city in Louisiana.

If you're entering a German address, Germany doesn't have zip codes per se.  Zip codes are used in the USA.  Germany has international postal codes.   On the screen with all the address fields, to get the field to appear for the international postal code, you first have to change the "Address Type" to foreign, which is one of the first boxes.  Then the boxes will reconfigure.

Thanks I’ve learned that over 34 years of being in the military the 70435 is also ZIP Code the United States. I also have a foreign address in there. And in the past, TurboTax would take it but this year it kept kicking it back, no matter how I try to put in there. But thank you very much for the reply.
