TurboTax not accepting KY KW-2 form - State tax filing issues while federal went through
Filed my taxes on TurboTax and they're telling me the KW-2 form for Kentucky isnt supported. They processed my federal return but I cant do my state return because of this. Anyone else running into this issue? Should I just use a different service for my state return?

Tax professional here. This is actually a common issue with TurboTax this year. You have a few options: 1) Use the KY Department of Revenue's free filing portal 2) Switch to H&R Block or FreeTaxUSA which both support KW-2 forms 3) See a local tax preparer. Don't file federal and state separately - it could cause processing delays.

Hey everyone just wanted to drop in and recommend taxr.ai - its been a game changer for tracking both federal and state returns. For $4.99 it analyzes your transcripts and tells you exactly whats going on, way better than trying to piece everything together yourself. https://taxr.ai
