Here's how you can import your wife's W-2 into TurboTax:

Open or continue your return.
Select the search icon at the top of the page and search for W-2 and select the Jump to link.
Select Work on my W-2 now and Continue.
1. If you've already entered a W-2, select the Add another W-2 button.
Enter your Employer Identification Number (EIN) from Box b on your W-2.
If your W-2 can be imported, you'll come to the Great news! We can automatically import your W-2 info automatically screen. Provide the requested information to complete your import.

If TurboTax doesn't recognize your EIN you can use the TurboTax mobile app, you can snap a photo of your W-2 using your smart phone.

You can also manually enter your W-2. We've got instructions for TurboTax Online and the TurboTax mobile app.

Where is the Search button to select documents from my computer on the W2 screen. Using desktop version. The only search on the top right leads to Help Topics.

As I had asked, Where is the Search button to select documents from my computer on the W2 screen? Your instructions refer to a Search option to import W2s.

Unfortunately, you cannot upload a pdf copy of your W-2 form to your TurboTax desktop program. You can key in the information on your W-2 form or download it if your employer is partnered with TurboTax to make it available for import.

You provided that option earlier. Not sure why functionality is being removed. How do I know if my employer has partnered with TT?

Separate question - TT would show previous year's numbers (in this case 2020) side by side when I would fill in the current year's return? Why don't I see that as a reference point?

Please see Partner's List for a list of employers that have partnered with TurboTax.

Only TurboTax Desktop shows last year's numbers side by side when filling out the current year's return.

Your partner list is really small and not accurate. Eg. I could import from Capgemini, and that is not on your list. What is TT's plan to expand the list?

GA 500 Schedule 1

lali000 — Fri, 15 Apr 2022 20:26:04 GMT

I see an amount of $600 on line 10. Where from the federal return is it coming from? The desktop software does not tell me that.

Re: GA 500 Schedule 1

BillM223 — Fri, 15 Apr 2022 20:43:12 GMT

GA 500 Schedule 1, line 10 - "10. Interest on United States Obligations (See IT-511Tax Booklet )"

Did you have any savings bonds? Are there any entries in lines 2a or 2b on your 1040?

Re: GA 500 Schedule 1

lali000 — Fri, 15 Apr 2022 20:52:23 GMT

No savings bonds. I have interest on 2b of 1040. I paid excess soc. sec. tax and got $4840 credit on line 31 of 1040. How does that translate to $600 in line 10 of Sch. 1 of GA 500? Your back instructions have to improve.

Re: GA 500 Schedule 1

DoninGA — Fri, 15 Apr 2022 20:59:49 GMT

@lali000

Look at the Georgia Income and Retirement Worksheets (Inc/Ret Wks) to see if the amount on Schedule 1 is being reported.

Re: GA 500 Schedule 1

BillM223 — Fri, 15 Apr 2022 21:07:45 GMT

"How does that translate to $600 in line 10 of Sch. 1 of GA 500? " - I did not say that it did. Line 10 on GA Schedule 1 is for interest on US obligations, or perhaps you are referring to another line/form?

Re: GA 500 Schedule 1

lali000 — Sat, 16 Apr 2022 13:02:27 GMT

Yes, it is reported but it shows the same $600 without showing where it is coming from.

Filing Extension

lali000 — Sat, 16 Apr 2022 15:41:06 GMT

If I file an extension through TT desktop, do I still have to mail in 4868? Your website claims electronic filing of extension. Also, I presume when I decide to file my taxes later this year, I can still use the TT software that I have purchased.

The desktop edition only provides the Form 4868 to be printed and mailed to the IRS, not e-filed.

If you want to e-file the form 4868 go to this TurboTax website for Easy Extension - https://turbotax.intuit.com/irs-tax-extensions/

Payment for Extension

How do I pay taxes due using TT desktop, when I am filing for an extension?

Re: Filing Extension

lali000 — Sat, 16 Apr 2022 15:55:25 GMT

So, I have to enter all my info. again on the online app. Why can't you carry over the info. when I log in to TT or allow filing on the desktop software??
