Where do I enter the W-2 details?

I'm at the place in TurboTax where I've got to enter information from my W-2. However, TurboTax seems to have skipped that part all together. Instead, I'm on a page with the heading of "Your W-2 info so far". It lists my employer with $0.00 for both Box 1 and Box 2. Under that are two buttons, one for adding another W2 for myself and one for my wife. We don't need to do either as we don't have any other W-2s to enter data. But at no point did I see TurboTax asking me to enter information off my W-2.

 

Huh? I don't understand how I got her without TT asking me to enter data off my W-2. And what makes it worse is there's no Back button. I'm lost as to how to proceed next. Please help.

Click Add a W-2 and enter the information. 

 

Once done, go back to the Wages & Income section

Click Edit/Add for Job (W-2) 

If there are more W-2 listed on the screen than you have for 2022, delete the one you don't want in your return. 

 

(or delete the W-2 first, then enter) 

 

If using Desktop, switch to FORMS and delete the W-2 

 

To Delete a Form in Desktop:
Simply switch to FORMS (top right corner) 
Find the form you want
Select DELETE located at the bottom of the screen 
Confirm

To Delete a Form in Online:
Click TAX TOOLS on the left side-bar
Click TOOLS on the Drop-Down 
Click “Delete a Form” on the TOOLS CENTER screen 
Click Delete next to the form on the list 
Confirm and continue

WOW, that's kinda complicated and certainly isn't obvious. Is this a bug in the TurboTax application?
