Box 14 is informational only. This is where employers put any extra information they want to transmit. The paid family leave can qualify as sick leave wages. You don't have to enter the box 14 information. The IRS has already received their copy from your employer. Any taxable wages should be included in your box 1 wages. See:
Turbotax made me check a box. Why did it not explain that this is for info only? Also any box did not seem right. Also on Family leave my employer pays it as Sick time that I have accumulated. There isn't a box for the yearly amount but it is taxed by my employer just like wages?
If the employer paid it as sick-leave, it won't be reported any other way than as wages on your W-2.
Please simply enter the W-2 as shown into the TurboTax program.
I have something similar. I received an extra w-2 with only box 14 entry, stating "$150 Sick leave wages subject to the $511 per day limit." Do I not add this in TurboTax? Or do I enter it as the description with $150 as the amount? Or do I enter it some other way? I tried entering the statement as the description with no amount & TT is complaining that the amount was left blank.
Thanks for any help,
Scratchin' my head
Combine the W2s into one entry for TurboTax. Go back to the "Job (W2)" topic and "Edit" the other (original) W2 from your employer. Add the box 14 info from the 2nd W2 there, selecting the proper box 14 category from the dropdown menu.
Be sure to delete the extra W2 from TurboTax.
