 The import code is printed in the lower right box of the name and address field on your W-2.  If you do not have an import code, you employer has not enabled W-2 import for you.   In this case, click the Back button in TurboTax, leave the EIN blank, click Continue - you will then be brought to the manual W-2 entry screen.

Are Import codes always the same for you if you keep the same employer?

You didn't explain what exactly an import code is. You just merely pointed out where to find it and not what it means.

You didn't explain what an import code is. I have an import code, EIN but no box D Control number.  I need to know what import code means and where in turbo tax do I enter it.
