If boxes on my w2 are blank do I put $0.00 when filing or leave it blank?

You should leave them blank. Unless TurboTax specifically tells you to enter a 0 for an entry, you should always leave them blank.

Note: If box 1 (wages) of your W2 is either blank or 0.00, then that will prevent you from electronically filing as the IRS does not allow e-filed W2s with no value in box 1.

I have a w2 with no reportable income. box 12 does have income from a 401K plan. SHould I put zero in Box 1 so I can e-file or should I disregard the w2?
