There are several reasons why W-2 boxes 1-13 may be blank. It's best to ask your employer.

 

You may have some income that is not taxable to federal but only to state. See I received a W2 from a former employer. Box 1 is empty. Box 13 has Retirement Plan checked. Box 15-1...

 

This may be a corrected W-2. If you received another W-2 from the same company, this could be corrected into.

Hi ErnieS0,

 

First of all thank 🤗 you for your answer, and I have been reading the links you send me, and I have a question ... whatever the reason, it must be reported only in the state  system boxes (California), or there are some exceptions for not report it.

 

Do you have some particular reading or some other link.

 

Thank again,

To clarify, are you a California resident or did you work in California?

Hi Dave,

 

Thank you for replaying.

 

I am resident from California. ... and as I asked 

 

Whatever the reason, it must be reported only in the state system boxes (California), or there are some exceptions for not report it.

are there some restrictions for California?

 

I would like to research more on the subject

Do you have some particular reading or some other link

If you would clarify what the data is in boxes 14, 16 and 17 that may help provide some direction.  You employer would be a great source of information on your W2.
