1099-NEC turbotax problem with boxes 5-7

I am entering a 1099-NEC and box 5 is blank, Box 6 says CO but no number and Box lists state income amount. Turbo tax won't let me move forward without a state ID number and there isn't one listed on the 1099-NEC.

What do I do?

    If box 5 is blank, it means that there is no state tax withheld.

     

    In this case, you should leave all 3 boxes 5, 6 and 7 blank.

    I have the same issue.  I didn't have anything in boxes 4-7 and when I go to file it wont let me through without filling in line 6

    There should be no error if all the boxes ( 4-7 ) are blank. 

     

    Please return to that screen and make sure the box for "My form has other info in boxes 4-7" is NOT checked.
