I assume that there are two w-2 from the same employer. Too many things and not enough boxes, so they spill one or two items onto a 2nd w-2.
Just make the "bonus" entry into the 1st W-2. DO NOT ENTER A SECOND W-2 JUST TO ADD THIS SPILL OVER.
Answers are easy. Questions are hard!

Thank you so much for your response. Its great to get "peer review" of issues! On the W-2, no, its not a second W-2. The client retired in 2021. For 2022, he got a 1099-R for his retirement pay in 2022, and then he got this W-2 with all fields blank other than box 12. He has a code W for $1,700 of Employer contributions to an HSA and a DD for $23,500 cost of employer sponsored health insurance. So to get the return to e-file without a critical error, I thought I would just delete the W-2, since it shows nothing in boxes 1-11 and no state info and no tax withheld. Might get a letter later on, but it should have any effect on taxable income. Any thoughts or advice on that plan?
