Your overtime pay should be included as wages on you W-2. In that case, you will enter the W-2 in TurboTax exactly as how it is on the W-2 you have in hand. 

There is nothing special you need to do about overtime pay. Unless, it is not included on your W-2 or any other tax forms. If this is the case, you will enter that income by clicking on the "Federal Taxes" tab go to "Wages & Income" > Scroll down to "Less Common Income", click on "show more" then click "start" next to "Miscellaneous Income", 1099-A, 1099-C > on the next screen titled "Let's Work on Any Miscellaneous Income" click "Start" next to "Other income not already reported on a Form W-2 or Form 1099", continue to follow the onscreen guide.
