I received some short term disability payments in 2024 while I was out with a broken ankle.
There was an overpayment, and I sent the overpaid amount back to the insurance company. However that transaction did not take place until Jan 7, 2025.
I received a W-2 from the insurance company. The W-2 reports the larger original total—i.e. including the overpayment—in box 1 of the W-2. And I didn't get an updated W-2 from them.
Will this all just be worked out when I file next year? Or is there some way to account for it in my current filing?
I found this answer to another question which seems to say it will be addressed in next year's filing, but that was for a long-term disability recipient. Also there was this other question, but I wasn't sure if the discussion was applicable to my situation or not, so I thought I would doublecheck to make sure.
Thank you.
