Washington state does not have income tax. You can type the two letter abbreviation WA in the box and it will correct the issue.

You say 1099-Int. Do you mean W-2. If so, leave boxes 15-20 blank. They are not needed for full year WA residents with no income from other states.

Still have questions?
