Overtime, it won’t let me enter it

To enter your overtime deduction in TurboTax, please follow these steps:

 

  1. After your W-2 information is entered, you will come to a screen that says “Let’s check for other situations”.
  2. Click on the Overtime box above and click Continue, you will get a screen that has information about the deduction.
  3. Click Continue there and a screen appears "Let's see if your overtime qualifies as tax-free".  You can click on "Help me calculate my eligible overtime" or "No help needed-I know what to enter", then click Continue.
  4. If you click on "Help me calculate my eligible overtime", you will get asked questions to help you determine what your overtime deduction may be.

If you are still having difficulties with entering your overtime deduction, please reply back with as much detail as possible with the issues you are having with this - this will help us to better help you out.
