You are correct.  Form 1040 line 1a should show the total of your forms W2 box 1 amounts.  Line 9 should be your total income.

YEs, but what can I do? I filed my taxes, they were accepted and I just realized that now. Anyway to contact someone at Turbotax to see about this? Soes taht mean they are wrong or is it just a glitch with the software?

What is wrong with 1040 line 1?  Is some W2 income missing?  Did you enter all your W2s?  What kind of income did you enter?  Income can also be on 1040 lines 2-8.

Sorry I still don't understand the problem.  Don't all your W2 box 1 show up on the 1040 line 1?
