I used The Import Mapping Utility to import a W2 text file but State wages and withholding did not import. Why?
You failed to map a state identifier to the appropriate state field. Mapping only state wages and withholding is not enough. You must map a state identifier (e.g. NY, NJ,…) to the ‘State 1’ field for State 1 wages and withholding, or, ‘State 2’ field for State 2 wages and withholding. After doing so, execute your mapping and try importing again. TIP: If all wages and withholding are for a single state and you do not have a field for the state in your source file, you can override the ‘State 1’ or ‘State 2’ field by right-clicking on the appropriate destination field and specifying the value to be used for all employees.
