Get your taxes done using TurboTax

That worked.  The key was leaving box b blank.  Maybe for next year a comment might be added to the page about leaving that box blank.  I would never have thought to leave a box blank that it was specifically asking for.  When a program displays a box (especially if it's the only box on the screen) that normally means to enter something.

 

But here's something interesting.  I deleted the W2 then started all over with 'adding a new W2'.  This time I entered the employer ID #.  I got the same screen with the option to upload from my computer.  It opened Windows explorer and I selected the W2 file.  Then I get the message it could not be uploaded.

 

I wonder what the difference is between supplying the employer ID # versus leaving it blank.

 

Anyway, I've got loaded.

 

Thanks for your help.
