15857: W-3 Box 15 "X" (DAS)


Forms

Drake Accounting®: Why is it that when I print the W-3, there is an “X” in Box 15 and the Employer's state ID number is missing. 

 

The “X” indicates that the W-3 submission contains information from more than one state. The IRS Instructions for Form W-2 and W-3, Box 15 state:

"Box 15—State/Employer's state ID number (territorial
ID number for Forms W-2AS, W-2GU, and W-2VI).

Enter the two-letter abbreviation for the name of the state
or territory being reported on Form(s) W-2. Also enter your
state- or territory-assigned ID number. If the Forms W-2
being submitted with this Form W-3 contain wage and
income tax information from more than one state or
territory, enter an “X” under “State” and do not enter any
state or territory ID number
."
