@RobertB4444 , thanks you so much for your reply, sorry for the word "sketchy" if that's offending, first time going through the IPO with all the crazy event, I'm pretty ignorant here, :).
I'm still arguing with my employer that these restricted stock should be reported on my W2 once they vested in 2021, just like any regular RSU vest, not sure if they will correct it.
A separate thing, I don't know if you work for TurboTax or not, can I nominate you as my tax reviewer in TurboTax, I trust you and am willing to pay you for your extremely helpful answer and generous attitude to help folks like me, thanks in advance again.
