it shows the error
Best answer by DoninGA

The control number in box d in not used to e-file a tax return nor is required by the IRS.  Leave box d blank (empty).  If you still get an error then delete the W-2 and re-enter the W-2 manually to clear this error.

You do not skip the W-2.  If you imported the W-2 and now there is an error you need to delete the W-2 and enter it again manually when using the TurboTax program.
