I received wages under $600. Employer is not required to provide W-2 because it is below threshold. How do I report on TurboTax? Non Standard W-2?

This is for pollworker wage; not other income.  Employer is compliant in not providing W-2.

 you can enter your $600 under "Other Income".

@fanfare Yes, I think that is what I need to do.  Intuit should really consider a form change in TurboTax next year to accommodate those uncommon situations where wage income exists (but no W-2 is required of an employer [different from Substitute W-2]), or where federal instructions require the wage line to be used (pensions and annuities received prior to the minimum retirement age).  Such an easy concept when filing a paper return, but difficult to execute within the confines of a software program.  I would recommend using the existing W-2 fields with a checkbox [no w-2 received].
