In the wages and salaries section we are retired and don't have any earned income so I don't know what to say in this section to show it completed?

  • Select Edit next to Job (W-2)
  • Select Delete (trashcan icon) on the line listing the W-2.
  • Select Yes on "Are you sure you want to delete this W-2?"
