Overtime Pay in 2025

Did you earn overtime in 2025?

Please provide documentation that indicates, in a separate listing, the amount of overtime earned in 2025.  This can be done three ways:

  1. There should be a separate box on your W2 form that indicates the amount of overtime that you earned in 2025.
  2. Your final paystub in 2025 may have a place that indicates overtime earned for the 2025 year.
  3. If neither your W2 nor your final paystub lists overtime earned in 2025 in a separate field, please have your employer provide a letter stating the amount of tips earned in 2025.We CANNOT prepare your return with a overtime earned deduction without proper documentation.
