Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Normally, the ordinary income portion is reported on your W-2 form, included in the line 1 entry. If not, you should see an option to indicate that in the section where you entered the ESPP sale.

 

As a last resort, you can report the ordinary income portion of your ESPP sales by using the following menu tabs in TurboTax:

  1. Wages and expenses
  2. Less common income
  3. Miscellaneous income
  4. Other income not already reported on a form W-2 or form 1099

Indicate that you received other wages and work through that section until you come to an option Employee compensation that was not reported on a W-2. Check that box and enter the information requested regarding the name of your employer, EIN and check the reason code I received a form W-2 and the income should have been reported on the form W-2. Enter the ordinary income component there.
