Smart Check wants an Employer State and ZIP on W-2, but I was unemployed in 2019

Why must I enter an employer state and ZIP code on a W-2 when I was neither employed nor an employer in 2019? I don't remember this from previous years with the same circumstances.

I just ran into the same problem.  I went to the W2 input section and discovered a bullet indicating information was needed for my W2.  Fixed the problem by selecting the do not have W2 bullet.
