First Turbo Tax just showed my income, now it just shows my withholding it is not putting the 2 together.  It makes NO sense.  Why?

We cannot see your screen and do not know what you are looking at.  Why do you think TT is only showing your tax withheld and not your income?

 

What do you see on your Form 1040?

When you enter a W2 you enter both the income in box 1 and the withholding in box 2 on the same screen.  Where is it showing you just one of them?  Why do you think they should be together?  The income shows up on your 1040 return line 1 and the withholding on line 17.  Look at your tax return.  Which lines don't you understand?
