The software detected that my W2 showed a different amount withheld for Social Security than it should have. The problem is, I can't get it to show me that notice again.

The software said that in the future I'll get a W2-C in the mail. I've gone back in several times and I can't get that message to come up again.

That's because there was a HUGE BUG in the software that listed that notice for virtually everyone, even when it wasn't true.

 

And they fixed it last night...so it may no longer be true for you.....it was one of the pages during the Federal review and error check..

 

(though...I don't know if they really fixed it, or just stopped posting the notice entirely as an unnecessary and usually useless annoyance)
