Copy B-To be filed with Employee's Federal Tax Return

How do I go about adding these numbers? I'm in the process of working on this now, and uploaded my two W2's.  I now have this "Copy B-To be filed...."  It was given for Third party sick pay.  Where do I input this information? Do I add another W2? Is it another form to input this, I'm unsure. Please help.

Yes.  Sounds like you have two forms W-2.  

 

Add another W-2 to be able to input the second W-2

 

Copy B - file with the Federal return (attach to mailed returns)  Make sure to enter all necessary information.

Yes, I added the 2nd W2 already. In total I have 3 different papers.  I have two W2 forms and the 3rd is this Copy B form. How do I go about adding this additional paper? Do I have to enter a 3rd W2 and input the information manually? With the first W2's I just added the employer ID, and it uploaded the two W2's, but when I went to do that on the Copy B paper which is the 3rd form, It wouldn't upload per the employer ID #.

Do not enter Copy B on your tax return.

 

Copy B is just a copy of one of your forms W-2. It is used to be attached to your Federal return in case you mail in your return.

 

If you e-file, you can ignore that copy.

So do not add it even though it's a different employer name, which is the 3rd party sick pay. I do not see anywhere on my W2's where it has been accounted for.

All W-2's can't be downloaded.  If this is a third W-2, with a different employer name, etc. that won't download, you will need to enter it manually.
