After you file

There are several things involved here.

First, you have two alternatives for filing your taxes.

  1.  You can file your taxes with what you have, and the amend them if the W-2 issue is resolved. Or
  2. You can pay what taxes are owed, and file for an extension which will give you until October 16th to file.

How to file an Extension

TurboTax file an Extension

 

On the sidebar go to:

  1. Tax Tools
  2. Then select Tools
  3. In the four green boxes select Tax Topics
  4. Type extension
  5. Need More Time to File Your Return?
  6. Select Start Easy Extension
  7. This will give you until October to file

The second issue is to try to get the employer to issue a corrected W-2c.

  1. Contact your employer again and try to get the corrected W-2.  Then,
  2.  If you’re unable to get your Form W-2 from your employer, contact the Internal Revenue Service at 800-TAX-1040. 
  • The IRS will contact your employer or payer and request the missing form.
  • Let them know: 
    •  your name, address, Social Security number and phone number. 
    • your employer’s name, address and phone number. 
    • the dates you worked for the employer; and 
    • an estimate of your wages and federal income tax withheld last year. 
    • You can use your final pay stub to figure these amounts.
