In order to add another W2 just click on start next to the box that says W2 and scroll down and click on this button-

 

The system will let you keep adding as many W2s as you need.

 

If the amount that is in box 2 of your W2 is zero then your employer didn't take any income taxes out of your check when they paid you.  This could be because of an error in how you filled out the form that tells them what to take out when you were hired (if you put a zero on the W4 or claimed that you were exempt) or because of an error that your employer made.  Either way that means that if any tax is owed on the money that you earned this year that you will be paying it when you file the return.

BUT  did you already submit and file the first W2?  If you filed and it was Accepted you can't add more.  You have to wait and amend the first return.  How is it not letting you add it?  Is there a message?  Box 2 withholding being blank doesn't affect it.  Are you trying to import the W2 or enter it manually?  Leave box 2 Blank, not zero.
