Do not add a second W2 for the same employer.  Add the additional code in box 12, and amount, to the one W2 for the same employer. This will allow you to E-file your return.  

  • Click the image attached to enlarge and view - it will show the box 12 entries for both W2s (included in only one W2 entry for the same employer).
