    You just enter the one W-2 with all of the Federal information.

    .....then, down in the state lines for boxes 15,16,17 you will put in one line for each state.

    Look for the text there to add an extra line for each state you need to enter.

    They provide extra copies of your W-2, so that ..IF...if you happen to need to mail file the state forms, then you have a copy for that state to send in....but in the software preparation, you only need the one W-2 to enter.

     

    You only enter separate W-2 forms in the software...only if you actually have multiple employers.
