Turbotax says my state employer number is incorrect, but it matches my W2 correctly. How do I move on?

This will often happen if the payer is located in Utah. Their payer ID must be 14 characters. The first eleven characters are numeric and the last three are “wth.” Please do not include hyphens.

 

Example: 12345678901wth.

 

Utah will NOT accept any other version for the Payer ID. 

 

For additional information, please see TC-40W, Part 1.
