My W-2 as a volunteer first responder has 0.00 in box 1 and 2 because my earnings from them were less than $600. The VRIPA program allows for up to $600 be exempted from federal tax, so the W-2 was created and shows 0 for income but a little over 500 for SS income and medicare income (because I still pay tax on those programs). Turbo Tax apparently doesn't like the 0 in box 1 and 2, and is forcing me to paper-file. Any work-arounds or am I stuck with paper-filing this return?
