If your Social Security number is wrong on your W-2, you will need to contact your employer to have them correct the W-2 with the correct Social Security number.

 

If you received a message that your tax return was rejected due to a Social Security number mismatch, then take a closer look at the message to see the rejection code.  Then, look for further instructions about what to do in the TurboTax help article below:

 

E-file rejections related to incorrect or duplicated names, birth dates, or Social Security numbers
