Do I need to send a W-2 for my Indiana state taxes. I am mailing them in. Thaniks

I have my IN states done and wanting to know if I should mail a copy of my W-2 in with my taxes which I prepared myself.  I have already filed federal.  Thanks

Yes, you should include the state copy of your W-2 with the return.  Also, you include a copy of any 1099 form or IN K-1.  Please don't staple these documents to the return, just put them in the envelope along with the return.

Some states (Illinois for example) request that the forms be stapled to the first page of the tax return. It should say on the first page how to submit the forms.

Indiana specifically requests that taxpayers not staple documents to the return.

Good to know.
