But what if the difference is not just a few dollars?
I am having the same issue and the difference between "Box 5 Medicare wages and tips" and "Box 16 State wages, tips" is 486 dollars. This is the exact amount of "Box 12b - Code C", which is group life insurance.
I have been using Turbotax for many years living in PA with the same job and this difference with Box 5 being greater than Box 16 due to the group life insurance has always been the case and I have never had to answer this question or send in a statement or send in my W2 before.
Has something changed? Any guidance would be appreciated.
