I got IRS notice -- LTR 105C - FY2021. IRS couldn't verify my federal withholdings(F-WH). Other than W2 what proof I can ask my employer, that he had deposited F-WH ?

In W2, the Federal withholding is greater than the tax I owe. I am suppose to get refund. I had already shared the W2 with them in response to CP05A. Now, I got LTR 105C saying, IRS could verify my federal withholding.

i responded to a thread about a taxpayer having issues with her a w-2 she got. I informed her to contact the Social Security Administration. The problem was the w-2 was never sent to the SSA but she got her copy. It's the SSA that's supposed to get the W-2s and forward the info on to the IRS. Therefore I suggest you contact the SSA to see if their records match your w-2.

the alternative is to register on the IRS website and review your w-2 transcript but it's likely not to match otherwise there would be no issue with the iRS.

May I know. How to contact SSA? Should I ask for my employer if they have any proof for submitting to SSA?

First talk to the employer ... ask them when/if they ever filed the W-2 & W-3 with the SSA. Was your SS# on the W-2 form correct ? The IRS should have sent them a notification after you sent them the W-2 form ... did they respond to it ?
