NC Education Lottery W-2G

[appgr99]

I have a few W-2G forms from the North Carolina Education Lottery.  They did not withhold federal tax on any of the W-2Gs, box 4 says $0.00.  The amount ranges won are between $600 - $2,000. 

Turbo Tax error message says NEEDS REVIEW.  Is this because NCEL did not withhold federal tax?  This happened whether I left the federal tax box blank or added $0.00. 

How do I fix this?  

The following boxes are filled

• BOX 1  Reportable Winnings
• BOX 2  Date Won
• BOX 3  Type of Wager
• BOX 4  Federal income tax withheld $0.00 on all forms
• BOX 5  Transaction
• BOX 9  Winner's TIN
• BOX 14  State Winnings
• BOX 15  State Income Tax Withheld

It is probably not because taxes were not withheld from the W-2G.

I suggest you run the Federal Review and answer all of the questions.  

This will typically clear the error messages from your return.
