Get your taxes done using TurboTax

It's completely normal for Box1 and Box 11 not to match on a W-2.

 

If TurboTax is giving you an error, it may be related to how the deferred compensation follow-up questions were answered. 

 

Double-check the W-2 entry and any follow-up questions about nonqualified plans. 

 

You can also delete your current W-2 and start over again using these steps:

 

To delete a W-2 from your return, please follow these steps:

  • Sign in to TurboTax (if you're not already signed in).
  • Click on the Take me to my Return button.
  • Click on the Federal Taxes tab.
  • Click on the Income and Wages tab.
  • Find the Wages and Salaries section and select Edit/Add.
  • Select the Delete (trash can icon) on the line listing the W-2 that is no longer applicable.
