Form W2c Issue

Received form W2c requesting that box 15 (both state and ID #) be cleared, but no corrections were indicated to boxes 16 (Wages) and 17 (State income tax).  Both have values.  We live in the same state were the wages were earned. TurboTax does not seem to allow me to clear box 15, without perhaps needing to clear the values in boxes 16 and 17.  Does anyone have any suggestions or know what the right thing to do is, other than perhaps contacting the employer? 

 

Thanks

Form W2c Issue

No, there is no answer except contact your payroll and ask them what they're doing. 

As you know, box 15 lists the state that corresponds to the following numbers in Boxes 16 and 17.

Box 17 reports the state tax that was withheld from your pay and sent in as a state tax payment. 

In order for anyone to know which state that tax payment was sent to, box 15 must stipulate the state. 

 

Look at your pay stubs to see if state tax was withheld. 

The W-2 won't be accepted with a number in box 17 and no state ID in Box 15.
