Question

Box 12 is different on 2 W-2s

I received two W2s from my employer because I moved out of state but continued at the same job remotely. The federal amounts are the same except Box 12 and Box 14.

Box 12 has the same codes on both W2s, but the amounts for code C and code D are different. It won't let me add a new box because it's the same code.

Box 14 has the same amounts, but the new state W2 has the state initials in front of the codes.

 

What should I do?

Thank you!

For the Box 12 amounts, simply add them together and enter the total (C + C and D + D)  for each, respectively.

 

For the Box 14 amounts, you can add another line to enter them separately.  See image below.

 

If there is no State ID number, just use the Federal number.
