Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Use your W-2. 

 

It should not be an issue. I assume the IRS does not have their copy of your W-2 yet. 

 

The IRS may not have received or inputted the information from their copy of your W-2 and may have listed the information they received from the Social Security Administration.  The income the SSA reports to the IRS could be different or just not yet up-to-date. 

 

If the IRS is just waiting for their W-2, they will update your wage on your transcript when they get their copy. 

 

If you are unsure, you can ask your employer if they had to issue a Corrected W-2 (W-2C)  but I would assume the IRS just is not fully updated.
