ORTWG = Oregon Taxable Wages

In section 14 what is the category I should use for ORTWG = Oregon Taxable Wages

Best answer by SteamTrain

If it is a large number.....similar to your Oregon box 16 wages.....then it is the Oregon wages subject to the Oregon transit tax.

If that is the case, Some folks indicate it shouldn't be entered on your W-2 at all...or choose "Other - not on the above list" for its Category.

IF it is a smaller number then it is the actual Oregon transit tax, where you select "Oregon State Transit Tax" for the category
