Where do you key in 0?

How much wages is in box 1? And for the SDI? The SDI Withholding Rate for 2022 is 1.1 percent. So multiple box 1 x .011. So if box 14 (or 19) is more only enter the max for box 14 on that W2. It could be from rounding so try leaving off the cents.

When entering your w-2, put your CA SDI amount in box 14 instead of box 19 so it will be deducted as part of your state and local income taxes paid on federal Schedule A.

Actually you are suppose to move the CASDI from boxes 19 & 20 TO box 14.
