My social security number is wrong on my W-2

Do I continue with filing, or do I wait until my employer fixes it?

You should wait until you get a corrected W-2 before you file your tax return.

If your name, Social Security number, or any dollar amount is incorrect, ask your employer to issue a corrected W-2 (form W-2C.

If you already imported or input your incorrect W-2, you will need to edit your W-2 in TurboTax to match the "correct information" column on your W-2C.
