How can I file my w2

If you want to add a W-2 to your return follow the steps below.

 

If you haven't already filed your return:

  1. Open (or continue) your return.
  2. Search for W-2 and select the Jump to link in the search results.
  3. On the Your W-2 info so far screen, select Add another W-2.
  4. Enter the information from the new W-2 on the following screens.

If you already e-filed, you'll have to wait until your return is either accepted or rejected.

  • If your return is rejected, you can add the W-2 as previously described before resubmitting or paper-filing your return.
  • If your return is accepted (or if you already paper-filed), you'll need to amend your return to add another W-2.

 

If you want to prepare and file W-2s using TurboTax, then follow these steps.

 

If you paid wages to employees during the year, you are required to provide them with a form W-2 and file these forms with the IRS by February 1, 2024.

 

You can use TurboTax Self-Employed to prepare and e-file forms W-2 and 1099-NEC.

 

Form W-3 is not required when you e-file.

 

To prepare forms W-2 and 1099-NEC, follow these steps:

 

  1. Sign out of your account and sign in again.
  2. On the landing page, click on the down arrow next to Your account then click on  Create W2s and 1099s.
  3. You will be taken to the TurboTax Quick Employer Forms (QEF) website.
  4. Sign in with your TurboTax username and password. If you do not have an account, click Create Account to create a new account. Note carefully the username and password as you need them if you need to retrieve the forms later.
  5. After signing in, click on Create New Form
  6. On the next page, choose the type of forms you wish to prepare then click Continue to begin entering information for your forms.

How can I file my w2

I think the instructions to create them are clear, but then how do I submit the forms to the SSA for filing?

How can I file my w2

When you click on File (my return) in TurboTax, TurboTax will electronically send your tax return to the IRS (not the Social Security Administration).

 

Note that you don't file a "W-2", you file your 1040 tax return.
