How do you file your taxes when you have two different tax statements from two jobs?

Answer 1

Each of the W-2 forms need to be entered separately. Each employer has a unique Federal Employer Identification Number (EIN). When you do you taxes, you will need to enter the information from one job, then enter the information from the second job. If you are using telefile, it prompts you and after you enter the first W2 information will ask if you have additional W2 forms. If you are using tax software it will have spaces for multiple W2 forms or will have a button to add the additional W2 forms. You will do the same with the state taxes. Do not simply add the two salaries together and enter them under one EIN.

Answer 2

As long as the W2's are for the same year, it doesn't matter how many you have. Some employers may give you two W2's if you worked for the same company at 2 different locations. That doesn't matter either. Each one is entered separately. It is then all combined to calculate your AGI and tax liability.

Answer 3

Add the wages from both and add the Fed tax withheld from both and complete 1 tax form 1040ez, 1040A or the 1040

Answer 4

Doesn't matter how many jobs or statements you have, you total the income, you total the taxes withheld, and you put the totals in the correct boxes.

Answer 5

You combine this income and report the total income figure.
