Your overtime pay should be included in box 1 of the W-2 or it may be shown in box 14.  After you complete the W-2, on the following screen check the Overtime box and continue.

overtime is not on my w-2 how do i add it?

Since employers are not required to report your overtime (OT), you may need to use information from a final pay stub or a statement from your employer to help you determine your actual OT amount.

 

To add OT that is not on your Form W-2, do the following:

 

  1. Review a final pay stub, or request a statement from your employer
  2. Go to Wages & Income and select Edit or Review to the right of your W-2
  3. Ensure all of the information is correct, click Continue
  4. When you reach, "Let's check for other situations", check the Overtime box, then Continue
  5. On the, "Let's see if your OT qualifies as tax-free" screen. select either the help or no help option, then Continue
  6. If you chose help, you will be asked for more details and an amount will be calculated for you 
  7. If you chose no help, enter your deductible OT in the "Deductible OT" box, then Continue
