Hello. My last paystub on 12 20 17 shows a greater number than box 1 on my w2 form? W2 messed up?

Your pay stub and W-2 rarely match.  Your W-2 is what gets reported to the IRS.  Enter it exactly as it appears.  Ask you employer to explain the differences to you.

Let us say my box 1 is 30k. my last paystub states 32k because of a taxed bonus and sick pay on that last check. box 3 and 5 show the 32k. i also have 401k contribuitions..which let us say are 1400. those are in box 12d. so with thay info..shouldnt my last TAXED bonus and sick pay also be reported?
