You can import your W-2 into the TurboTax mobile app by taking a picture of it. Here’s how:

Open the app and select Wages & Income. Tap the button.
Select Job (W-2) and select Continue on the Let's start with some info from this W-2 screen.
When you see the How do you want to enter your W-2? screen, tap Snap a photo and then Continue.
If asked, give permission to TurboTax to access your camera.
Helpful tips might appear before you see the option to select Now let's snap a photo.
- Note: Although TurboTax will use your device's camera, the W-2 picture won't be saved with your other device pictures, nor in your TurboTax account.
TurboTax should then automatically import your information, or direct you to type it in if there’s a problem.
