Instructions in program to fill in W2 information do not match my W2's.

[KayEee]

Information in program says Em[loyer Id in box 2.  Employer ID  on my forms either say Payers TIN or Payers FIN.  Progam says it want's Federal Tax Withhelt which it says is in box 2 but it is really in box 4.  I'm afraid to use this program.  Been a customer for years.  Have never run into this problem before.

The payers "TIN" and payers "FIN" is the same as the employer's ID number.  When the program asks for the employer's ID number enter either the TIN or FIN whichever is on the form.  The format for these numbers is XX-XXXXXXX
