W-2 error message when filing on TurboTax

I was a part-time resident in MN and moved to WA- I worked remotely in MN for my employer who is based in Seattle, Washington. My W-2 for my employer is only for when I lived in MN with the wages I earned there as there is no income tax in WA, but my employer address on the W-2 is a Seattle address. Turbotax is not letting me file my taxes saying the zip code from the employer address does not match the state listed. What do I do in this case, as my W-2 is technically correct?

    The error is coming because the zip code is specific to Seattle and the state id is MN (for which I was issued the W-2)- both zip code and state id's are written correctly

    Were you able to correct the zip code and file, or are you still encountering the same issue? @nvenka98
