  • Down the left side of the screen, click on Federal.
  • Down the left side of the screen, click on Wages & Income.
  • Click the down arrow to the right of Wages & Salaries.
  • Click to the right of Wages and Salaries (W-2).
  • Enter the employer ID from your W-2.  Select Continue.
  • At the screen How would you like to add your W-2, you may upload a PDF, JPG or PNG of the W-2 or take a picture of the W-2 with a smartphone.

Income reported on the IRS form 1042-S may be reported on the Federal 1040 income tax return.  What is the income code that is reported?

To clarify, is the W2 and 1042S for the same income from the same employer?
