You do not need to input the control number (box D) on your W-2. If you get errors when attempting to e-file with an empty box D, just enter any number in this format: 5 digits, space, 5 digits (for example 12345 67890). The IRS doesn't care what's in box D.
A Control Number (box D) is used by many payroll departments to uniquely identify a W-2 in their system. If your W-2 doesn't have one, it's no big deal.
Please read this TurboTax Help topic for more information.
If box d is blank on your W-2 leave it blank in the software.
