Get your taxes done using TurboTax

If your IHSS W-2 shows $0 for wages, you don't need to enter it in TurboTax; just keep it for your records.

 

However, if you need to include the income for a credit you want to claim, then don't enter the W-2 but enter the income as Other Reportable Income with the description of W-2 EIN # (enter EIN number from W-2) Box 1 Medicaid Waiver Payments, and then make a negative entry with the description IRS Notice 2014-7 excludable income in the same section  so you won't be taxed on the income.
