Are you referring to a W-2? If so, the best way to rectify this to delete the form.

 

See the original article here, or read on:

  2. In the left menu, select Tax Tools and then Tools.
  3. In the pop-up window Tool Center, choose Delete a form.

A W-4 is a form you give to your employer to have taxes withheld from your pay.  I think you really mean a W-2.
