Enter all W-2s separately and exactly as on the printed form.

To enter Wages and Salaries (W-2)

•        Click on Federal Taxes (Personal using Home and Business)

•        Click on Wages and Income (Personal Income using Home and Business)

•        Click on I'll choose what I work on (if shown)

•        Scroll down to Wages and Salaries

•        Click the start or update button

Regarding your 1099-R, Box 11: Leave box 11 of the TurboTax form blank (empty) if your form 1099-R has no entry in box 11.  If you are getting an error for box 11, make sure that there is no information in the box.  There may be a "phantom" blank space in the box, so put your cursor in the box and use the delete button on your keyboard several times to remove any hidden characters.

If this does not clear the error, you can delete the Form 1099-R and then re-enter the form.

You get a 1099-R for retirement income, not a W-2.
