W_2 with only Box 14

If you received a second W-2 from the same employer, every box is blank except Box 14 has info (SDI), how do you report it? Turbo said can't efile return with Box1 has $0. The 2nd W-2 was from a settlement. Can you add the box 14 SDI amount to the 1st W-2 (from the same issuer)? Or just ignore it? It was Less than $3. But on the top said the info was furnished to the government. Thank you very much!

If the EIN number in box b is the same and you work in more than 1 state or city, sometimes they will give you another W2 with the extra state information on it and the top part the same or not filled in. If this is the case, list one W-2 but include both state or local taxes on it. It will let you type in more than one line for boxes 15-20. Don't add the boxes together.

Same for boxes 12 & 14 if there is no room on the first W2 they can give you another W2 with the extra boxes on it. So list them all on 1 W2. For box 12 just enter it in the next row or box. It doesn't have to match the box 12a-d etc.

Thank you very much! It is from the same employer and the same city. I think it was from a settlement payment (others' settlement). Should I add that SDI amount to the other W-2's SDI?
