Hi there,

thank you for your response. I tried to put the state ( CA ) in but it still prompts me to input the locality. I’m unsure exactly what that is but the unemployment tax  paper that came in doesn’t even have a box for “locality”. I lived in Palmdale CA (93550 zip code); do you know how to figure out the locality for this area ?

Since your locality is Palmdale you should enter that as your locality.  This should take the entry and allow you to move forward.
