W-2c - May be wrong/not necessary, State of MN - can it be disregarded?
Hello. In January through December of 2022, I had moved back to Texas. The year before (2021) I lived in Minnesota. A mistake was made by my employer and I got MN taxes withdrawn and paid to MN for the entire year of 2022.
I think all I need to do is file a Non Resident Tax Return with Minnesota to get most of it back. The problem is when I went to my employer about this originally and asked what to do, they sent me a W-2c that looks completely wrong.
Line 16 (State wages, tips, etc) of the W-2c was changed from my actual yearly salary amount to $0.00 - Turbo Tax will not accept this amount for my MN state return, TurboTax tells me that 0.00 is a wrong amount - as I WAS taxed and that money is now in the hands of MN, that actually makes sense that TurboTax would say it's wrong. If I try to do my State return with my real salary in line 16, as a nonresident of MN, it shows me getting almost all that money back. Since this W-2c form is presumably filed with the IRS, am I able to disregard the W-2c my employer issued or do I have to file it? I'm worried now this may affect both my State and Federal return filings. I have called my HR department on this and am waiting for some kind of contact, I was curious if anyone knew on the Turbo Tax end. Thank you for your time.
