    Try entering the Federal ID number shown on the form you are entering.

    Or

    ...you don't leave just 15 blank...  you must leave the entire state line blank.

     

    i.e.  boxes 15,16,17 should all be blank on a W-2 for TN

    or, boxes 14, 15, 16 should all be blank on a 1099-R for TN
