On re-reading your questions--I am worried about this line:
..." my last company gave me this check for unpaid wages ..."
What exactly does that mean? Were you working for them as a W-2 employee? Did something happen? Why would they give you that big check and say the taxes on it are up to you? Better find out if they will be sending a W-2 for all of it or maybe a W-2 and 1099NEC.
