Thank you for using TurboTax!

When going through Foreign Earned Income data entry, you'll be able to indicate that no form W2 has been issued (please see attached picture).

To enter foreign earned income follow these steps:

1. Federal Taxes

2. Wages and Income, Jump to Full list

3. Scroll down to Foreign Earned Income and Exclusion You will be able to indicate that you do not have a W-2 but a statement from your foreign employer (this option also includes cash). Follow the prompts and please be sure to report the income in U.S. dollars.

This should be what you are looking for! Please feel free to comment back with any additional questions or difficulties you may experience. Best regards and thank you again for using TurboTax!
