Received 8 W2s from old employer. 7 of them are mostly blank. Help?

[kluteman]

I got 8 W2s in the mail from a prior employer.

One of them holds the bulk of my tax info, but the other 7 are nearly blank, with boxes 18, 19, and 20 being the only boxes filled in.

This also means I was not given a state name to associate them with (Box 15 blank).

I primarily worked in OH in 2020, but had a few jobs in KY, so I am having trouble pairing certain localities with the associated state.

Plus, Intuit wants to take the extra W2s and mark them as "duplicates," so I don't want to file the one W2 without figuring out the other 7.

I've never had a situation like this before.

Is there a work-around, or should I contact a local tax expert?

don't bother contacting a tax expert if the state name is missing. contact your employer.  they need to correct the info reported in boxes 15-20 for each state/locality. without this you'll have trouble filing state and local returns. 

many employers generate 1 w-2 for federal and resident state and then additional copies for each other state/locality but they need to specify the state/locality

Box 15 on your w-2 should show the state and the employer's state id number.  If BOTH pieces of info are there, you can go on and enter in Turbotax.  IRS need the info on all 8 w-2s.  You received a separate W-2 for all different city, county, state in which you worked.

Just enter one W-2 but include all the other state or local  taxes on it.  It will let you type in more than one line for boxes 15-20.  Don't add the boxes together.
