Using Turbo Tax Desktop and E filing a New York State Return- Can I add an Attachment to that

[egg1]

Hi

I am going to E File a New York State Return using the Desktop Premier Version and need to attach a copy of a W-2 to that E File transmission.

Can I do this?   I see under the Tools Tab there is an Attachment Choice but it does not do anything.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thank you

There is no need to attach a W-2 on an e-filed tax return.  The information from the W-2 that you entered using the TurboTax program is included in the e-filed return.

If they need to see your W2 or a 1099 or something they will send you a letter for it.  So keep all your forms and records.  Why do you think you need to attach it?

Hi

Yes I know that but after last year's e filing,  New York State had sent me a letter to supply a copy of the W-2 to them.  I think it is because the W-2 is generated by a Connecticut Employer who withholds New York State Taxes.  Not sure, but I wanted to try to stay one step ahead.

Do you think an attachment can be transmitted?

Hi

They sent a letter for the 2020 W2 after it was efiled

Each year will be separate.  Just wait to see if they send you a letter again.  Sorry.

Thanks, that is what I will do.
