Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Are you saying that a W-2 for you in the amount of $2,740 in box 1 has been transmitted and accepted?  But now you would like to report the $2,740 as self-employment income subject to income tax and self-employment tax?

 

If that is the case, the IRS will be looking for that W-2 income to be reported on your Federal 1040 tax return.  

 

The IRS will also be expecting the employer to remit the $209.61 in Social Security and Medicare tax payments and to be reported and paid on a Federal 941.  In addition, other Federal and state forms are likely required to be filed.

 

The issuer may be willing and able to correct your W-2 with an IRS form W-2c.

 

I recommend that you not file a Federal 1040 tax return until the status of the W-2, W-2c and $2,740 self-employment income has been clarified.
