Get your taxes done using TurboTax

You are correct.  Because this was income that should have been included in your W2 and has already had social security and medicare paid on it it is just added to your income for the year.  

 

The reason that there are two answers is that the first was for you to have added it to your 2022 tax return in 2023 when you first received the refund.  Since it wasn't added last year it can be added this year so that you have the income matching the form that you received.
