@Opus 17or any tax experts, I now have the same issue. I was paid the bonus in 2021 which was reported as part of my income in 21 return. I left the job and they asked me to authorize a FICA exemption for the company (or something like that) so I returned the bonus minus FICA in 2022. The company issued a W-2C for 2021 with verbatim instructions and new amounts only for boxes 3,4,5,6.
My 2021 return (MFJ) said standard deduction was better than using itemized so we did and received a refund that year.
In 2022, we also have solar installation to deduct. How should we file this refund to get appropriate tax credit? When I tried to do "amend a return" from our 2021, it said I owed tax so I'm sure I didn't do it right. I'm unclear whether to go into 2021 and do amend a return or do something within the 2022 return I'm filing.
Thank you for your guidance.
