Deductions & credits

If your employer refused to cooperate, I would suggest you contact the IRS at 800-829-1040 and you should also complete and attach a Form 4852, Substitute for W-2, to your tax return using the best information available to calculate the wages and the withholding. This information can often be secured from pay stubs. 

To see how you enter in the TurboTax program, click here for instructions Substitute W-2.   

 

Employees who do not have taxes withheld nor remit them personally, are still liable for these taxes and may not qualify for Social Security, Medicare, or unemployment benefits.  In addition, if the employer refuses to withhold employment taxes from these wages and the IRS is unable to collect the employment taxes from the employer, the employee still has the responsibility to pay income tax and is ultimately responsible for his/her share of the FICA tax.
