Upload the missing W-2 (Box 1 — Wages, tips, other compensation) for every employer the client worked for in TY2025. If only a paystub or prior-year W-2 is on hand, request the current W-2 from the payroll provider; a manual override on 1040.L1a is acceptable only with a preparer justification per DEC-027.
Wages on Form 1040 L1 but no W-2 source document: Wages of ${wages_total} reported on Form 1040 line 1 but no W-2
document was found for the taxpayer. A W-2 is required to validate
federal withholding and the Social Security wage base; without it
the line cannot be reconciled and box-2 / box-3 / box-4 cross-checks
fail. Confirm at least one W-2 has been uploaded for every employer
the client worked for in the tax year.

L8 is a passthrough from Schedule 1 line 10 (additional income). Whichever upstream Schedule 1 buckets fire — unemployment (1099-G), Schedule C self-employment (1099-NEC, 1099-K, 1099-MISC), Schedule E rental / royalty / partnership (K-1 1065, 1099-MISC), Schedule F farm (1099-PATR) — the underlying source document must be on file before the rollup completes.
Unemployment compensation on Schedule 1 but no 1099-G found: Unemployment compensation of ${unemployment_total} reported on
Schedule 1 line 7 but no 1099-G document was found. A 1099-G is
required to substantiate the unemployment-compensation amount
(box 1), any federal income-tax withheld (box 4), and the state
identifier (boxes 10a / 10b) that drives the state return's
add-back / subtraction. The 1099-G also carries state and local
income-tax refunds (box 2) that may be taxable depending on the
taxpayer's prior-year itemize / standard choice.
