- Click Edit/Add next to Job (W-2);
- click on Add a W-2;
- enter the information as reported on your W-2. Enter the amount you received for IHSS Payments in Box 1 (even if this amount is not reported in box 1 of your W-2).
My W-2 shows 0 for Box 1 and Box 16. I didn't realize the 2022 Form 1040 was changed to have these payments on Line 1d instead of Line 1a. I entered the IHSS payments in Box 1 and Box 16 when adding the W-2. My return was accepted with the IHSS payments reported on Line 1a from the modified W-2 Box 1 amount. Do I need to amend the return to properly report it on Line 1d? Nothing else changes as far as I can tell. My 540 also has the IHSS payments in Line 12 from the modified W-2 Box 16 amount. It was also accepted, but I'm not sure if that is proper.
