Get your taxes done using TurboTax

For issues with a W-2 mismatch, try the options below. 

 

  1. Contact your Employer HR Department:
    • Ensure the state ID is correct and the amount withheld matches the information they submitted to the state. (Since you have already done this, try steps 2-5)
  2. Go back to the Income section in TurboTax.
  3. Delete the W-2:
    • Click on the trash can icon next to the W-2 to delete it.
  4. Re-enter the W-2 manually:
    • Make sure all information is correct and matches your physical W-2 form.
  5. Review and file your state return:
    • Proceed to review your state return in TurboTax and finish filing.
  6. If the rejection persists, consider printing and mailing your state tax return. You can find instructions on how to do this here.
