Hello.
My wife and I filed married filing jointly this year. I entered in my W2’s and was told I would get a refund of $2000. When I ensure in my wife’s W2 from this year, it says she owed $2000 and I also put in the W2 from last year and the $2000 jumped to $8000. My wife finally realized her employer never put in a W4 for her once they switch payroll companies. Will she end up owing the $8000 even if she didn’t make a mistake with the W4? Will the payroll company offer to pay for their mistake? Will we need to fight this?
"When I ensure (sic) in my wife’s W2 from this year, it says she owed $2000 and I also put in the W2 from last year "
First, please clarify something, then someone should be able to help you. "this year" and "last year"... Did you mistakenly enter a 2023 W-2 and a 2024 W-2 both on a current 2024 return?
