Can I file another extension if I haven't received my corrected W-2 by October 16?

I filed for an extension in April, and I had until October 16 to file. Our payroll provider has not made the necessary corrections to me W2. I was told I could extend a second time to push the deadline past October. How do I do that?

No.  There is only 1 extension.   And if you are using the Online version and don't file by Oct 16 you will have to finish in the Desktop program.  Online will close soon after Oct 16.  So you better download the .tax2022 file to open in the Desktop program.  And after Oct 16 you will have to print and mail your return.

To continue in the desktop version see this…….

How do I save my TurboTax Online return as a tax data file?

After you get the program installed the first thing to do before you open your tax return .tax file is to update the program and install any state programs you had. Then open your file. So you first might need to start a fake return to be able to download the state program (go to FILE - NEW).  Just enter some basic personal info like your name and address then click on the State tab at the top and it should ask if you want to download the state program.

 see Form 4852, which alllows you to report the correct compensation after contacting the IRS to inform them that you attempted to get a corrected W-2c from your employer but were unsuccessful.

Contact the IRS. 1-800-829-1040 or visit a Taxpayer Assistance Center. The IRS will send your employer a letter instructing them to issue a corrected version within 10 days.  When you contact the IRS, make sure you not only have your taxpayer info, but your employer's or payer's name and complete address including ZIP code, employer identification number (EIN) if known, and phone number.

After contacting the IRS it will advise you of the option to report what you think is the correct wages and withholding using Form 4852, the "Substitute for Form W-2".  You'll have to reference your pay stubs if you use this form, if and when you receive the corrected w 2 (W-2c) you may have to file an amended return.

don't know if the free addition supports this form.
