To properly report the two RSU release and sales, treat them and enter them separately.  For the transaction which is properly reflected on your W-2, answer Yes when you get to the screen that says "Was this a sale of employee stock?".  When you report the transaction not reflected on your W-2, when you get to that screen answer No, this is not employee stock. This will allow you to avoid all of the RSU related screens for that release.  In the 1099-B entry section, there is a page with "Any of these less common items on your 1099-B?"  Among those options are Federal and State tax withheld.  If the tax withheld from your "second" sale was reported on your W-2, you don't need to report it.  If it wasn't reported on your W-2, you can report it here.  If your company withheld Social Security and Medicare tax but didn't report it on your W-2, your W-2 will have to be corrected.
