Unless you are employed by the IRS, your W-2 is not coming directly to the tax software from the IRS. If you "imported" your W-2, you imported it from your employer's payroll site, not from the IRS. W-2's are issued by employers. You can enter a W-2 by hand, or you can import it with certain key information, or if you use the mobile app, you can snap a photo of the W-2. No matter what method you use to enter your W-2, you need to check it very carefully to make sure it was entered correctly before you file your tax return. Sometimes data imports incorrectly or incompletely, or images glitch when you snap a photo. It is imperative for a user to double check all data before filing.
