Did you receive multiple W-2's with the same EIN from a state Medicaid Home and Community-Based Services program that are considered "difficulty of care" payments? Is there an amount in box 1 of the W-2's? What other boxes contain entries?
Per IRS Notice 2014-7, the payments are considered "difficulty of care" payments and are specifically excluded from gross income for income tax purposes. Please see this IRS article for more information.
Please clarify. Depending upon how the income is reported (or not reported), there may be other ways to report Notice 2014-7 'difficulty of care' payments.
