Retirement tax questions

 Your employer might have withheld federal taxes from your paycheck but sent you an incorrect W-2.

 

Per IRS:

If your W-2 is incorrect

Ask your employer to correct the error. If your employer doesn't correct it by the end of February, you should either:

We'll send your employer a letter asking them to give you a corrected W-2 within 10 days.

We'll also send you instructions for Form 4852, Substitute for Form W-2. You can use it to estimate your earnings.
