Get your taxes done using TurboTax

If your wages or withholding didn't transfer to your state return:

  1. Revisit the W-2 section in the Federal return.
  2. From the Your W-2 summary screen, select Review/Edit.
  3. Continue to the next screen, Now let's update the rest. Locate Boxes 15-17 (state wages and taxes withheld) and check the following:
    • Box 15 State should contain the correct 2-digit state code. 
    • Box 16 Wages should contain the wages that were earned in the box 15 state
    • Box 17 State Income Tax should contain the taxes withheld amount (the withholding) for the state in box 15.
  4. Select Continue two times to return to the W-2 Summary screen. Select Done. If necessary, repeat these steps for other W-2s.
