Retirement tax questions

They are not corrected W2s.  Since we worked and retired from the same employer we have the same retirement benefits.  We receive these W2s every year and when we filed by mail never had an issue.  I'm trying to efile this year and the returns keep rejecting stating the W2's are duplicates because there are 2 W2s for each of us and the amounts are the same.


You can't e-file with 2 W-2s from the same employer.  That's an IRS limitation.  Your employer should only be issuing one W-2.  If you don't want to press the matter, you will have to file by mail again.  (A professional tax preparer may be able to e-file, because some of the limitations on e-filing that apply to consumer software don't apply to professional software.  But I don't know this for a fact.)
