I have been running the final Error check on my taxes and it keeps claiming I have an error (duplicate entry) where I enter Boxes 18-20 of my W2. However, I'm entering exactly what the W2 says but the software still wont let me continue. How do resolve this?

    Sometimes the only thing you can do is to delete the W-2 and re-enter the W-2 and see if that eliminates the error.

    I've done that 5 times already

    Is there more than one W2 on your return?   When you went into the State return did you enter the information again?   Have you tried to delete the Kentucky Return and then add the Kentucky return back and go through the questions to see if that clears the problem.

     

    It's hard to say whether it is in the W-2 or the State return that is presenting the error.
