Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Hello davidsimshomes:

The answer to your question is "yes."  If you are reporting taxable wage income in Box 1 (federal) of your W-2, then those same wages are taxable as well by the state in which they were earned.  Thus, you would want to input those wages in Box 16 of your W-2 as well.  The only exception to this would be if your S-Corp "employed" you in multiple states, in which case you could have more than one state applicable in W-2 Boxes 15, 16, and 17 -- subject to the mathematical constraint that the sum of Boxes 16 (states) should "add up" to Box 1 (federal) of the W-2.

Regards.
