Get your taxes done using TurboTax

No, you should not file until you have received the corrected W-2.  There may be more changes than you are unaware of.  Your W-2 has to match what your employer provides to the IRS.  If it does not match the IRS will contact you to resolve the difference.  It is early in the filing season so you should receive your corrected W-2 before the filing deadline of April 18, 2022.  If you do not receive it by then file an extension using Form 4868.

 

Follow these steps to file an extension:

  1. With TurboTax open Click on the Other tax situations.
  2. Scroll down to Other Tax Forms section.
  3. Select show more.
  4. Select Start on the line file an extension.
  5. Follow the prompts to file your extension.
