Employed Data Import Tips
There are a few things you should keep in mind when importing your employed data into TurboTax:
Start by importing your W-2 forms. TurboTax will automatically detect any discrepancies between your reported income and your W-2 forms, and will offer to resolve them for you.
Make sure you have all your tax documents ready to go. TurboTax will ask you to input your employer’s name, address, contact information, and more.
If you have any mismatches between your reported income and your W-2 forms, TurboTax will offer to resolve them for you. However, if you’re confident that there are no discrepancies, you can choose to resolve them on your own.
If you choose to resolve any discrepancies on your own, be sure to read the instructions carefully. Resolving discrepancies can can affect your tax liability, so you want to make sure you understand what you’re doing.
Finally, be aware that TurboTax may ask you to enter information that you don’t have. If this happens, be sure to enter the information as accurately as possible. Incorrect information can lead to penalties and delays in your refund.
