Perhaps the erroneous income is not coming from the W-2. Maybe it was accidentally entered somewhere else on the return. To check for this, I recommend reviewing the forms. Here's how to look at your current-year return forms: In the left-hand menu bar, click on Tax Tools, then click Tools. Under Other helpful links, click View Tax Summary. Your Tax Summary will be displayed. In the left-hand menu bar, you will see a new option: Preview My 1040. Click it, and this will allow you to see the forms. It is important to check your 1040 before you check your state return, as much of your entries on the 1040 will impact the state return. If you want to view your state entries, Click on Tax Home in the left-hand menu bar. In the center of your screen, scroll down until you see State Taxes. Click on it to review your state entries.

Question

My state tax return summary is showing the incorrect income. I have reviewed and reentered my W2, 3 times. However, turbotax keeps miscalculating my taxable income!!??
