Thank you for joining the discussion and sharing your error messages, @SueM23. Let's delve into the e-file W-2 issue and explain the error messages you've encountered.

To start, errors R200008 and R100005 are linked with the processing infrastructure of your state agency and these error codes signify that there may be technical issues or scheduled maintenance operations occurring on their end. This is why it disrupts the normal processing flow and results in the prompts you're experiencing while attempting to upload your W-2 forms.

To ensure a thorough resolution, I recommend contacting your state agency for the latest updates or solutions regarding these prompt messages. They can provide guidance on addressing these errors and help facilitate the e-filing of your W-2 using the .txt file format. You can find your state agency's official website through this resource: Access state agency websites for payroll.
