Brain is Frazzled! Need help with Substitute W2

[Tax Prep by Deb]

I haven't done one of these in a while, but how do I input the info so that it shows up in line 7?

When in danger, or in doubt, run in circles, scream, and shout!

Which is my snarky way of saying "I dunno" - but good luck!

Dear Frazzled,

      At this time I'm frizzled, so maybe not the best source, but on my ATX all you gotta do is add new form 4852, fill in the money, etc., then go to the W-2 input mode and type it all again.  It should then pop up on line seven of the 1040.  It's been awhile since I've done one so I tried one and after doing the 4852, nothing came up on line 7.  But, you have to type it in like a regular W-2 too  Try that.

What Black Bart said.  I have a couple of these per year and you need to do the input twice.  I wish it would flow to the W2 input screen but it does not.  You have to manually enter it in both places.

Bart and Tom are right. Remember you have to paper file this return
