After you file

Hi,

Thanks for your response; As mentioned in the question, the changed amount is box 3, 4, 5 and 6, which is social security and medicare wages and withheld amounts. In this case, do I not need to amend tax filing?

 

You do not amend for a W-2C that changes boxes 3-6 since that would be a do  nothing change (unless more than the maximum was withheld).   W-2 boxes 3-6 do not get reported on a tax return at all - it is information that the employer sends to the IRS and SSA and has no effect on your tax return.

 

(When you said "withholding" I originally thought that you meant box 2 tax withholding.)
