Zip code and state on spouses w2

I amnot married and filing with a status of single, yet the software is indicating that I have not completed the state or the zip code for my spouse's w2.  I don't have a spouse so therefore there is no spouse w2.  How do I by pass this mistaken error?  It will not let me efile until I have corrected it.

Did you file joint return in prior year?

Confirm your filing status in the Personal information section. 

Revisit the wages section to make sure there is no empty W-2 from prior year.

  1. Log in to your account.
  2. Go to Federal Taxes.
  3. Go to Wages and Income.
  4. Select Edit/Add next to Job (W-2).
  5. Click Edit next to the W-2 to review your information.
