In many states it's quite common for the federal and state amounts to be different for various reasons, such as differences in the pre-tax vs. post-tax treatment of certain payroll deductions. It can also happen if you worked part of the time in a different state. So different amounts for federal and state wages cannot be considered an error.<BR /></P> Sat, 01 Jun 2019 01:35:17 GMT https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/taxes/discussion/if-you-are-referring-to-the-wage-amounts-in-box-1-and-box/01/58289#M24108 rjs 2019-06-01T01:35:17Z
