Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Hi!

Thanks for getting back. However, I have a couple of follow up questions:

 

1. I did contact my employer and got it corrected for 2021. But when I asked them if they can update the 2020 W2 such that it reflects the FICA and social security taxes, they mentioned its not possible to correct my 2020 W2 since it was issued correctly and the FICA taxes were not withheld since my visa status wasn't updated to them. 

So in this case, if they are not issuing me a corrected W2, is amending my returns still an option? 

 

2. I did go through the IRS link and it suggests I fill form 4852. Is this what I should be doing to pay my FICA taxes ? Since both the federal and state taxes have been withheld accurately from my paycheck.

 

3. When you say IRS will be reviewing my tax return the way I have filed now (w/o FICA taxes) and send me a letter with adjustments will it also include a penalty or will it just be the taxes I owe to them? 

 

Thanks a lot for your help!
