What do you do if you have the wrong social security number on your w-2? Do I still file my taxes?

Your refund will be on hold at the IRS since the IRS does not have your employer's withholding information in your account.

IRS says: contact the IRS on Feb 15th if there is a problem with your W-2, not on April 15th.
