Missing employer state ID on W-2

[hpdkid]

I have a W-2 for a distribution from a deferred comp that has been going on for several years and did not have any problem filing TurboTax until now. The W-2 shows FL in box 15 (my state of residence) and the employer state ID is blank. (My prior employer is in Ohio). TurboTax is flagging the missing employer ID, and is not letting me file electronically. Please help fix this problem!

Delete FL, make sure all the state and local boxes are empty at the bottom. That line lets the issuer notify the IRS for communication with the state government. It allows our program to make sure you file all necessary states. The IRS has a copy already and you do not need to file a FL return. You can file your copy with nothing in those boxes safely.
