Hello, box 1 of W2 includes tips, but where do I put the tip amount separately to not be taxed on them?

If your tips are already included in Box 1, make sure to enter the tip amount in Box 7 to activate the “No tax on tips” deduction. 

 

After asking you some questions, TurboTax will determine if you are eligible for the deduction for tips. Keep in mind that only voluntary tips qualify for that deduction.

How you enter your tips in TurboTax depends on whether the tips are shown in box 7 or box 14, or not shown separately on the W-2 at all. See the following FAQ for detailed instructions.
