Line 12

[Jtaxquestion]

I received two w-2s from the same employer. The second one is blank except for box 12. I believe the I may have received this 2nd w-2 only because there are 5 items in box 12 instead of 4.   If I add a second w2 without entering anything in line 1, it won’t allow me to efile.  Do I have to create an additional w2 and send it in by mail, or can I just add a row to the original w2 and efile?

If both W-2s are from the same employer, don't report the second W-2. Add the additional code in box 12 and amount to the first W2.
