I have 2 different amounts in blocks 18 & 19 with the same locality in Block 20. How do I fix this error?

I think your trying to post a W-2.  

  • Does it give you an error with the boxes posted as they are?
  • Is the amount of combined Box 18's larger than box 1?
  • Is there any notation in Box 14 that would give a clue what it was for?

Hi there,

 

- It says I need to review them

- Yes, the combined amounts are larger

- There is a number in Box 14 but nothing indicating a relation to Boxes 18-20

If you enter the combined amount into Box 18 and omit the second line, does the error go away?
Your local wages shouldn't be more than your taxable federal wages, but it could happen.

 

Any chance one of the lines shows negative numbers?
