Was it a very low amount earned?
Compare your W-2 to your paychecks.
The amount your employer withheld and matched on your income is very important, (FICA)
but what they withheld for Federal Income tax won't affect your TAX LIABILITY. It is just the tax you pay ahead of tax time.
Your tax liability (what the IRS feels is your fair share) isn't affected.
The amount withheld for Federal Income tax is usually based on how you fill out your W-4.
