Get your taxes done using TurboTax
If your overtime pay isn’t listed in box 14 of your W-2, look for it on:
Your year-end pay stub: This is your best resource if your W-2 doesn't have the info.
Statement or letter from your employer: Your employer may provide a separate written summary of your overtime earnings for the new tax laws.
How does TurboTax calculate the deduction?
If your pay stub shows a combined total for overtime (regular pay + premium), and you’re paid time-and-a half the IRS allows you to use one-third of that total as your deductible amount.
If you earned double-time pay, you can use one-fourth of the total overtime paid at double-time shown on your statement.
When you enter your W-2 info, we'll ask questions about your overtime and apply the deduction.
How do I enter my overtime pay in TurboTax? This article will tell you how to enter your overtime pay in TurboTax.
