One of my W2s is only needed to be filed with state (NJ) not federal. How do I do this in Turbo Tax, as if I add the W2 Turbo tax assumes to add it to Fed income?

Is there an option to add another W2 after I complete the Federal, that will only be filed with the state?

If the second W2 isn't needed for the federal filing, there should be no issue with it being listed federally.  I have one that's needed for federal, but not state, but it is listed on the state tax forms when I file.  I think they just ignore the unnecessary information.
