No Tax On OT, how to enter

Hello all, I’m using Turbo Tax Deluxe.

I do not see the form and there were no questions in the step by step : (
Also, are employers required to to supply OT information if requested?

No Tax On OT, how to enter

For tax year 2025, your employer may list non-taxable overtime in box 14 with a specific label like "FLSA OT Prem". You might also receive a separate year-end statement giving you the amount. Otherwise, you have to calculate the overtime premium to enter on your tax return.

 

In TurboTax Online, this is how you enter the qualified overtime premium:

  1. After entering your form W-2, you'll see a screen titled Let's Check for Other Situations
  2. Put a checkmark on Overtime and click Continue
  3. Follow the TurboTax questionnaire to enter your qualified overtime premium
  4. This deduction will transfer to Schedule 1-A of your form 1040, with that amount flowing to line 13b of your form 1040.

 

Refer to the TurboTax article How do I enter overtime pay in TurboTax Online? and  I Worked Overtime This Year — My W-2 Pay Doesn’t Show it. for detailed instructions to enter your overtime.

 

For additional information, refer to the TurboTax article No Tax on Overtime Explained: Qualified Overtime Deduction Rules for 2025.

No Tax On OT, how to enter

It is the same in the deluxe version of desktop, @db_help_please 

 Just enter your W-2 in the Wages & Income section and you will be able to enter your OT information.   TurboTax will automatically put in on Schedule 1A.

How do I enter my overtime pay in TurboTax?

 

If your overtime is listed in box 14 on your W-2, make sure the box 14 description and amount in TurboTax match exactly what’s on your form, then continue to the review screen and select Overtime as the category. TurboTax will ask questions to determine if you qualify and calculate your deduction.

 

If your overtime isn’t in box 14 on your form, look for the Let’s check for other situations screen after entering your W-2. Select the box for Overtime and follow the prompts for guidance tailored to you.
