Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Did you work in more than one state? Total State means there are state forms for more than one state. Total State is the sum off of all state W-2 forms.

 

Total State does not go anywhere in TurboTax. Instead you should have a separate row of each state in Boxes 16-20. Check the copies of other W-2s on your sheet. They may have other state information.

 

If one copy has a state abbreviation and no Employer ID, it might mean you worked in a state with no income tax. We'd have to know more about your situation to tell you how to deal with that—whether you were a part-year resident of more than one state—or lived in one state and worked in another.
