Get your taxes done using TurboTax
The issue is that the payroll provider gives a copy of your W-2 (whatever it is) to the IRS, so if you make changes to the W-2 when you file your return, the IRS is highly likely to notice this, hold up any refund, and send you a letter demanding an explanation.
So it would probably be smoother to just file the W2 that you have.
