Your 2019 W-2 is not going to automatically "fill in" If you transfer your 2018 to 2019 the employer information can be transferred, but the 2019 INCOME is not automatically in there. YOU have to enter it.. If you see an amount there already--it is the 2018 amount. Make it match your 2019 W-2
Every 2019 W-2 that you received must be reported on your 2019 tax return, even if they are for small amounts. Remember that each one of those W-2’s has your Social Security number on it, and that income was reported to the IRS by the employer. You do not want to get in trouble with the IRS for under-reporting your income.
ALL of your W-2’s must be entered on the SAME tax return. After you enter the first one, you click Add Another W-2.
W-2's come from your employer, and they have until Jan. 31 to issue it. Some employers allow you to import the W-2 through the software, but often you still need information from the actual W-2 just to import it. So waiting for your employer might be your only choice now.
