State ID Number on w2 is 0, what should be done?

I'm an IHSS worker for my husband, and I received W2 with my husband as the EMPLOYER.
Now, when I'm filing my taxes, the State ID Number box 15, has the value as 0 (zero). 
When I enter 0 on turbo tax, it says the value is invalid. 
What should be entered in this case?

State ID Number on w2 is 0, what should be done?

It depends.  In order to withhold state income taxes, a company must have a State ID or Account number.  Your employer (your husband) needs to file a W-2c (which is the corrected version) for you and include the ID number on the corrected W-2.  

 

If you do not have an amount entered in box 17 for State Income Tax Withheld, then you do not need to enter any information for box 15, 16, or 17.
