Received two W-2s. Missouri and Kansas

Forum|Forum|2 years ago

I live in Missouri, but I work in Kansas. I received two W-2s from my employer. The Kansas W-2 has boxes 15-17 filled out; whereas, the Missouri W-2 has all the essential boxes filled out, 1-6, 12, 13, 15-16, 18-20; leaving 17 (state income tax blank). How should I file for federal and state? Do I include both W-2s in federal and in state? I tried filing both in federal and it said to remove duplicate forms to prevent errors when filing. So should I only include Missouri in federal and both in state?

In TurboTax, you will prepare one W-2 from your employer but include all the information from the two W-2’s that you received.

Make sure that you do not duplicate any box 1 income or taxes withheld. But do ensure that you are given credit from all of the taxes withheld.

You may need to click Add another state or Add another locality to post all of the information.

The one W-2 should satisfy the requirements of the Federal tax return. Taxes paid to both states will flow to the Schedule A should you qualify for an Itemized Deduction.

The lines of state information will flow to the individual state tax returns and/or allow the software to compute the appropriate credit for taxes paid to another state.
