Question

My W-2 thinks I worked in 2020, but I started in 2021, how do I change it?

I started this job in November of 2021, coming from unemployed since 2020. It auto-filled most of the W-2, and all the information provided is correct. Only when it brings me to the final screen does it show both 2020 and 2021 income, so I have no idea how to fix it.

If this W2 was from the same company and you used TurboTax last year, it shows the information but only the 2021 W2 will be included on your 2021 tax return.  See How do I preview my TurboTax Online return before filing?
