I’m in Tennessee and it has every option but Tennessee? Does that make sense

    I assume that we a re referring to your form W-2.

     

    Nine states — AlaskaFloridaNevadaNew HampshireSouth DakotaTennesseeTexasWashington and Wyoming — have no state income taxes.

     

    As your state Tennessee has no state income tax, it is not in the drop down menu of Box 15 of form W-2. Just leave boxes 15 and 16 blank even if TN is listed in box 15 and box 16 is filled with an amount on your form W-2.

     

    The same applies to form 1099-R.
