It is not unusual to receive more than one W-2 when there is more than one state or local area to report. The paper version of W-2 forms is limited to one area per printed form, but the electronic version within TurboTax allows multiple state or local entries if needed.
The information reported on your multiple forms can be entered as a single W-2 since it is from the same employer. It would be normal to see information in boxes 1 through 6 on one of your forms, and then nothing reported in those boxes on the additional forms that show the additional local areas.
To enter this into your tax return, add additional rows to the state or local sections by clicking the blue “Add another row” link under the state or local section of the W-2 (for TurboTax online), or simply type the data in the second row on the screen (for TurboTax CD/downloaded versions). You can add as many rows as needed to enter all of your information. Click on the picture below for a visual reference.
To go back to the W-2 section of your return, use these steps:
On the top row of the TurboTax online screen, click on Search (or for CD/downloaded TurboTax locate the search box in the upper right corner)
This opens a box where you can type in “W-2” (be sure to enter exactly as shown here) and click the magnifying glass (or for CD/downloaded TurboTax, click Find)
The search results will give you an option to “Jump to early W-2”
Click on the blue “Jump to W-2” link
