It keeps importing my 2022 w2s

You filed your 2022 tax returns during calendar year 2023.

You must have your 2023 W-2 that you received from your employer before you can import the 2023 W-2.

It keeps importing my 2022 w2s

It is not possible to import W-2's from 2022; they are no longer available to import.   Do you really mean that the software is showing some employers from  2022 and asking if you have a 2023 W-2 for the employer?   You can say no to any of them if you are no longer employed by that employer.

 

 

 

TurboTax does not have your W-2.   W-2’s come from employers.  There is not a federal or national website that provides W-2’s.   If your employer is partnered with TurboTax to allow the W-2 data to be imported into the software you can do that---but you need the actual W-2 so that you can enter the EIN and the amount from box 1 to import the other data from the W-2---which just saves you the little bit of keying in of the other information.

 

 

 

Every 2023 W-2 that you received must be reported on your 2023 tax return, even if they are for small amounts.  Remember that each one of those W-2’s has your Social Security number on it, and that income was reported to the IRS by the employer.  You do not want to get in trouble with the IRS for under-reporting your income or have your refund delayed by having missing income.

 

ALL of your W-2’s must be entered on the SAME tax return.  

 

Go to Federal>Wages & Income to enter a W-2.

After you enter the first one, you click Add Another W-2.

 

 

W-2's come from your employer, and they have until January 31 to issue it.  Some employers allow you to import the W-2 through the software, but for security reasons you still need information from the actual W-2 to import it.  You might need to phone, drop in, email and/or snail mail an old employer to make sure they know where to send your W-2.
