Do I enter both W-2s that I received from the same employer, even though they are the same and my earnings seems to be split between both W-2s?

[molly-m-red]

I got two W-2 pages from my employer and it seems like my Gross pay is split between the two pages equally. The only differences between the two is in boxes 18, 19, and 20.

Take a moment and check the forms.

If the Employer Identification number (Box b.) on the W-2.  Do not add them together.

• Is one form a W-2 and the other a W-2C.
  • If you haven't filed yet, enter the W-2C and not the regular W-2.
  • The W-2C is a corrected copy.
• If they are both regular W-2s, employers will often go to a second page to add additional information.
  • If boxes 18, 19, 20 are full on the first one, the second one is for additional information.
  • Those boxes are to report Town and City local information.

If the EIN 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, enter 1 W-2 but include both state and local taxes on it. It will let you type in more than one line for boxes 15-20. Don’t add the boxes together. If the locality in box 20 is the same you can simply combine the values in boxes 18 and then the values in box 19 together.
