What's a nonstandard W-2?

by TurboTaxUpdated January 25, 2023

W-2s can have a variety of formats, but they are typically computer-generated by your employer or a payroll company.

You have a nonstandard W-2 if your form is

  • Typewritten (meaning it was created with an actual typewriter)
  • Handwritten
  • Altered, changed, or marked up in any way

 

You should make that selection only if you received the W-2 from your employer in a nonstandard format.
