IHSS W2 income on box 1

I received W2 from IHSS which shows amount on box 1($5,874.00).This is less than $9297on box 3.

This probably happened as the IHSS received the live in certification late(SOC2298).

 

How do I exclude the income?

This is what I did

1)Kept all the income the ay it is on W2

2)Less common scenerio- seleted

Nontaxable Medicaid waiver payments that qualify as difficulty of care payments
 
3)Let's check your Medicaid waiver payments
How much of the $5,874 in box 1 is difficulty of care payments?
All of it
 
4)Did you get any difficulty of care payments from NALIN BHOWMIK that aren't in box 1? (This includes payments in other boxes or that aren't on your W-2.)
Yes
Put $3423 in the box
