i also have a situation where stocks were deducted by the employer to cover taxes and only net stocks were deposited in my brokerage account. However,
1) I don't see that withholding being reported in w2 tax withholding (only my wage withholdings are shown) but the full vesting amount is reported in the income. isn't that wrong? shouldn't the stocks that were net out been included in the withholding else i am paying 1:1 tax extra isn't it?
2) given that only net stocks were deposited, do i have to report the withholdings in 1099b as sale?
