My employer calculated the state income incorrectly on the W2 form
Hi,
Because my employer didn't fully update my remote work status in the system, my W2 form says my CA income is smaller than the federal income, even though they should be equal. On the other hand, the CA income withheld is calculated assuming that they are equal. So I am a bit worried that the state tax agency might be confused. In this case, is it okay to file the CA tax return indicating there that my actual CA income is actually equal to the federal income (I remember they ask both the actual CA income and the CA income as shown on the W2 form)? Or is it safer to ask them to issue a W2C form? They say it will take a week to 10 days to send it to me and the tax agencies so before the tax deadline...
