Yes that makes sense thank you.
The employer (Federal Government) has not been very helpful thus far, they have been very short when asked for help in this matter, they even gave me the wrong form when I clearly explained to them the issue over several emails and raised my concerns about the tax implications last year. They simply replied, "just complete the form and it will be fine".
I think it will be highly unlikely they would create a revised W2 for me.
Do you think I should at least try or do you think the work around will suffice albeit with a potential question or two from the IRS if/when it raises a red flag.
