Get your taxes done using TurboTax

You can go back to the W-2 entry screen and go through the import steps again.  But be sure to delete the W-2 you already started or else you will get errors when you attempt to e-file.  

To import your W-2:

1. Open or continue your return in TurboTax.
2. Using the search feature in the upper right corner, search for W-2 and select the Jump to link in the search results.
3. On the Let's get your W-2 info screen, select Work on my W-2 now.
   1. If you've previously added a W-2 to your return, you'll come to the Here's your W-2 info screen. Select Add another W-2 to add your W-2.
4. Enter the 9-digit Employer ID Number from your W-2 and select Continue.
   • If your employer is a TurboTax partner, we'll lead you through the steps to import your W-2.
   • If your employer is not a TurboTax partner, or if you're otherwise unable to import your W-2, you can snap a photo of your W-2 using the TurboTax mobile app or manually enter your W-2.

If you're accessing TurboTax Online on your phone through a web browser instead of from a computer, you'll have the option to snap a photo without using the TurboTax mobile app.

To manually enter your W-2:

If you don't have your employer's EIN or prefer to skip the import options, you can manually enter the info from your W-2 instead. Follow Steps 1-3 above. At Step 4, if you can't import your W-2 or if you select Continue without entering an EIN, you'll come to Let's type in the rest of your W-2 info screen where you can manually enter your information.
