Alabama ex ot

I've asked the question about Ex OT for Alabama State taxes.

My W-2 Shows the same amount wages in box 1 and box 18.

I'm told that box 16 on my Alabama state W-2  should reflect the Ex OT

Box 1 and 16 on my state W-2 is the same.

Is there another way to enter the Ex OT amount that is in Box 14 on both W-2s Federal And State.

I have tried ever sight on the internet with no help how to claim the EX OT on Alabama State tax forms

Employers are supposed to make the adjustment in Box 16 of the W2.  If they did not, you should contact them and request a correction.  You can subtract the Box 14 EX OT amount from Box 16 for the correct amount.
