If I received 2 W2's from same employer and only difference is second one only shows amounts in boxes 15 and 17, do I enter that W2 separately?

Boxes 1 thru 6 have same amounts on both W2's.  Each W2 has a different state or local ID # but from same employer.  How do I enter them?

No.  You should enter all of this information as one W-2.  

When you're entering the amounts for your W-2 scroll down to the bottom of the screen.  Here you can click on the blue +Add another row in order to enter multiple state/local information.  Please see attachment for reference.

Will I add the information from the second w2 in boxes 18-20?  TT premier will not let me type in box 15, it only asks for a state abbrev.  Box 18 will let me type in it.  The second W2 has a county name in box 15, not a state abbrev.  Mine tt does not say "Add another row" it already has a second row on there under both 15 and 18

@jj49mj Yes.  You should put your county information in Boxes 18, 19, 20.  Do not enter county/local tax information in Boxes 15, 16, 17 as these are for state amounts only.
