W2 Wages

I received an error message in Turbo tax that Box 1 - Wages, tips, other compensation Cannot exceed 9999999.99. What do I do?

Delete that W2 and re enter it. That may clear out any errors.

I tried that no luck. Is there an income limit for using turbo tax?

Is your W2 over 10 Million?

@TROS Are you are W-2 employee who has a W-2 that shows over ten million dollars for 2021 in box 1?   if so, why are you using do-it-yourself tax software?

Yes I am W-2 employee with more than $10M in wages. I have always done by own taxes and I don't know any tax accountants and nervous to just find someone randomly.

Unfortunately, TurboTax cannot accept a W-2 with more than $10 million in wages.

That stinks so I bought Turbo Tax for nothing this year?
