employer use.
It is not necessary. Don't
worry about it if it's not on your W-2. Just leave blank.
The control number (box D) is
not required to enter your W-2 to complete your tax return. Simply leave
this number field blank or skip this
question of TurboTax, click Skip Import and
you will be directed to manually enter your W-2.
Please see the following FAQ article for additional information:
A Control Number (Box D) is used by many
payroll departments to uniquely identify a W-2 in their system. If your W-2
doesn't have one, it's no big deal – you can simply leave it blank.
If you get errors when attempting to e-file with an empty Box D, just enter any number in
this format: 5 digits, space, 5 digits (for example, 12345 67890). The IRS
doesn't care what's in Box D because its use by payroll departments is
optional.
On the other hand, if you're
trying to import your W-2 with a blank Box D, click skip import and then manually enter your W-2. You won't be
able to import using the 5 digit + space + 5 digit solution for e-filing.
The control number (box D) is not required to enter your
W-2 to complete your tax return. Simply leave this number field blank or skip this question of
TurboTax, click Skip Import and
you will be directed to manually enter your W-2.
