It is in state of Utah, but it is an error in the Fed tax as well.  I can't e-file, which is the point of using online filing.  I have filed with turbo tax for over 10  years.  This is the first time with problems.  I need my tax return reset and refunded so I can start over.

 

thanks,

Paul

State ID will be on your forms, maybe a w2 with UT state tax withheld or some other form where UT tax was withheld. Please check all of your forms against what the program says along with state rules. From Income Tax Withholding - Utah Income Taxes - Utah.gov:

For payer ID:  The Utah withholding account number is a 14-character number. The first eleven characters are numeric and the last three are “wth.” Do not enter hyphens. Example: 12345678901wth. The program wants lower case for wth.  Contact the employer or payer of the income to get the Utah ID number.

 

If there is no state withholding, you can delete the entire state line.
