Multi-State, Two W-2s, "XXXX" in Box 1

Mar 06, 2007 2 Replies

I actually worked in three states last year: CA for a CA company, OH for a PA company, DE for the same PA company as OH. The PA company sent me two W-2s: one has all of my earnings for the year in Box 1 with DE as the state for Boxes 15-20; the other has "XXXXXXXXXXXXXX" in Box 1 with the OH info listed for Boxes 15-20. I am trying to use Turbo Tax to E-file but it keeps complaining that the one W-2 has $0 for Box 1. Alternately, you aren't allowed to enter more than one state / W-2. Anyone know how to handle this situation? Is the only option to mail-in?

NM. I didn't see that you actually CAN add multiple states to a W-2 in Turbo Tax and that it WILL let you E-file after that.

TurboTax lets you enter as many states as you need on one W-2. Enter the OH information on the second row for boxes 15

- 17 on the W-2 form, as if both states had been reported on one W-2. The best place to get help with using TurboTax is the TurboTax user forum at
