If you are unable to proceed or you get an error because you have local withholding or wages, and the locality name is blank, enter your city. This should allow you to proceed without error.
I just called Winstar Casino in OK. They said put WS in locality box #18
W-2 for this and past have always had box 16 blank Name of locality. This has never prevented me from filing before.
please advise.
also was told that they would email me when they have an update on the forms that need to be completed. Please explain
Each state handles local taxes differently. The name is likely a city, county or school system that you lived in or worked in. We are unable to see your W-2.
Are you able to see what was reported on that employer’s W-2 one year ago?
