I have entered the correct amount for my W-2 box 1 and 2 but this amount is thousands larger on the Income & Expenses recap sheet. What could be wrong?

Incorrect decimal point placement or a comma in place of a decimal point?

To get back to your W-2, enter W-2 in the Find box on the upper right, hit enter, then click on the Jump To.  When you come to the little summary, edit the W-2 in question and make your corrections.  Make sure your decimal points show or delete everything  form the decimal point on and round the number, not using the decimal point at all and no extra zeroes.
