Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Hi,

Thx for the quick reply, but please let me add some color to my question:

 

This is the first year that a W-2 form has been issued, although it is still tax-exempt.  Previously, this payment would be entered under 'Miscellaneous Income - Nontaxable Medicaid Waiver Payments not reported on a form W-2 or 1099', and Turbotax would then back this amount out on Line 8, Form 1040.

This option still exists in Turbotax 2024, but, in this case, I DID receive a W-2.  It doesn't feel right to just not enter the W-2, and I fear if I use the 'Miscellaneous Income' method, the IRS will think I received it twice.

 

Would you recommend I just enter '$1.00' in Box 1 of the W-2 to trick Turbotax into letting me e-file?
