Return to the federal interview and check if there was any information input. If a form was started, even if the details are blank, TurboTax will warn you about it, affecting the federal and the state. The way to get by the W-2 requirement is to make sure that nothing is posted in this section.
To do this in TurboTax, follow these steps:
- From the left menu, select Federal
- Wages & Income will be the next page that opens. Scroll down to Jobs (W-2) and click Edit/Add
- If anything is listed, click the Trash Can Icon
- Next, go back to the left menu to Tax Tools
- Tools
- Delete a Form
- Scroll through to check if Form W-2 is listed or a Wages, Salaries & Tips Worksheet and click delete. Confirm the deletion. Repeat as needed on this list.
- Sign Out of your TurboTax program
- Close the browser window
- Wait a minute
- Open a new, incognito Chrome window
- Sign in to your TurboTax program
- Run your reviews again to confirm that your can continue with your tax filing
