Re: Incorrect name

Hello everyone,

I realized that my employer didn't correct my last name. Will this cause any error when I file, or what should I do ?

A misspelled name on a W2 will not cause problems, but your employer should correct it going forward. As long as your SSN is correct, you will be fine. Make sure you have your name spelled correctly on your return.

My efile was rejected due to incorrect employer tax ein. I corrected it and am now told I cannot resend the return electronically. Is that correct ?
