Error importing W-2

First, is there a forum or help site for software issues?  I can't seem to find any way to report bugs.  I tried asking in the help within TurboTax Desktop and the chatbot's answer had nothing whatsoever to do with my question.  I can't find a forum here or any other place on their website.  Even the online help link in the software is bad.

 

Anyway, I am getting a cryptic error importing a W-2 from Dayforce:  Unsuccessful SONRQ BAD USERID/USERPASS.  It appears Intuit's login is not working.  But that's not the only bug.

Error importing W-2

There is no place to report sotware bugs.  You can enter the W-2 manually if it will not import.

Error importing W-2

Importing of W-2's usually is not available from the TurboTax partners until mid-February.

 

Have you received the W-2 from your employer so that you enter enter the employer EIN and the gross amount of wages in box 1 on the import screen?  Also may need the Control Number in box d.

 

See this TurboTax support FAQ for importing a W-2 - https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/import-export-data-files/import-enter-w-...

Thanks, yes I had my W-2 and entered all the necessary information, the error was due to something else.  But it worked today, they fixed whatever the problem was.

Error importing W-2

W-2 Import is failing. Is it because the input field for "Box '1' amount" is expecting a password? When filling out the input field MacOS is indicating that it is a password field even though it is not. The import fails and does not provide any information about the cause of the failure.

 

How can I import my W-2 into TurboTax Premier?

Error importing W-2

It is just as easy and maybe even faster to manually enter the W2.  And the W2 might import wrong.

 

To enter a W2
Federal on left or top (Personal in Home & Business)
Click on Wages and Income tab
Then Wages and Salaries
Wages and Salaries – Start (you might have to click on Show More on right)


To enter a W2 manually do NOT enter the EIN
Just hit Continue
Then in pick the Left box - Type it in myself - Continue
