My employer messed up my W2 (I received two, with different/incorrect information on them), can I file for an extension while payroll corrects this? Should I get a CPA?
I moved states and kept my remote job, but my boss didn't change my address correctly with payroll. That payroll company continuously taxed me incorrectly for about 9 months. We then got a new payroll company and I was told this issue was corrected & taxes were being withheld for the correct state that I live in. Early this year, I got two W2s--one from the old payroll company that was withholding taxes from the wrong state for me--and the other W2 has taxes from both the state I work in and the state I live in, but the income information is incorrect. The current payroll company is trying to correct everything and give me a new, complete, correct W2. I don't want to get stuck with having to file my taxes last minute, as I will owe money to the state I live in. Do I file for an extension? Do I just hire a CPA to help with this?
