How do I upload a w2 from 2022

Are you trying to do a 2022 return?  Online is only good for 2023 now.

You will need a full Windows or Mac to install it on.

You will not be able to import a W-2 from 2022. Importing is only for the current tax year. Enter the W-2 manually.

Do not try to use online TurboTax for a 2022 return.  You can only use the  CD/download on a full PC or Mac.   And you cannot import a 2022 W-2.  You will have to key it in by hand.

 

Your 2022 return cannot be e-filed.  It has to be filed by mail----and you need to attach a copy of that W-2 to the Form 1040 when you mail it.

 

Online preparation and e-filing for 2020, 2021, and  2022 is permanently closed.

 

To file a return for a prior tax year

 If you need to prepare a return for 2020, 2021, or 2022  you can purchase and download desktop software to do it, then print, sign,  and mail the return(s)

You may also want to explore purchasing the software from various retailers such as Amazon, Costco, Best Buy, Walmart, Sam’s, etc.

 

Remember to prepare your state return as well—if you live in a state that has a state income tax.

When you mail a tax return, you need to attach any documents showing tax withheld, such as your W-2’s or any 1099’s.  Use a mailing service that will track it, such as UPS or certified mail so you will know the IRS/state received the return.

 

Federal and state returns must be in separate envelopes and they are mailed to different addresses.  Read the mailing instructions that print with your tax return carefully so you mail them to the right addresses.

 

Note:  The desktop software you need to prepare the prior year return must be installed/downloaded to a full PC or Mac.  It cannot be used on a mobile device.

 

If you are getting a refund, there is not a penalty for filing past the deadline.  If you owe taxes, the interest/penalties will be calculated by the IRS based on how much you owe and when they receive your return and payment. The IRS will bill you for this; it will not be calculated by TurboTax.
