How to file two different W2's (same tax ID, but different company name)?

Received two W2's. The EIN ID number is the same on both and so is the corporate address, but the company name is different. I am a school employee so one W2 lists the High School name and the other the Elementary School name. Having the same EIN number and State ID number is throwing me off. The smaller W2 matches a separate deposit I received during 2024 for an extra paycheck I received. Can I enter 2 separate W2's in TurboTax even though the tax EIN number is the same or do I need to contact my employer? Thank you.

You can post two different W-2s in TurboTax even though they have the same EIN.

  • If you do get the message "Remove duplicate W-2s"
  • Combine the W-2s
  • This is not a problem because the IRS tracks based on the EIN
