HI, @AmyC - Thanks for your reply and explanation. It makes a lot of sense. I have a similar case where I took the medical leave for my own condition in WA and got the WA PFML payments. I also checked my payslips and similar to original poster, I am paying the WA PFl as employee taxes. My employer uses Lincoln financial to file the WA PFML claim and the payments are routed through Lincoln financial. Lincoln financial has sent me a W2 for year 2024, with Box 1,3 and 5 as the $16,016 which is the same amount from WA PFML. The W2 also has tax deducted in box 2,4 and 6. There is no code on box 12 and box 13 mentions Third party sick pay.
I have reached out multiple times to Lincoln to correct this W2 as the amount is non taxable but Lincoln has denied to correct the form. How do I file it in Turbo tax so that I do not have to pay taxes on this amount received? I will appreciate your response. @DaveF1006
