For the tax year 2022, my company did not withhold FICA taxes from my payroll due to my visa status. However, I later realized that I am required to pay FICA taxes regardless of my visa status, as I am considered a resident for tax purposes. Additionally, my W2 form underreported my total income by almost $20,000, further complicating the situation.
As a result of these issues, I missed the tax filing deadline and had to file a tax extension in April. I calculated my taxes owed and paid a generous amount to avoid any penalties. Despite repeatedly raising this issue with my company's payroll and ADP for almost 5 months, I still haven't received my corrected W2 (W2c) for the tax year 2022.
I am concerned that if I file my taxes using the incorrect W2, it will indicate that the IRS owes me a refund for the taxes I paid, which is not accurate. I want to ensure my tax filing is accurate and reflects the corrected information. Considering the circumstances, what specific actions should I take at this point to file my taxes by the October 15 deadline? I am worried about the potential refund discrepancy, and your guidance on resolving this issue promptly would be immensely helpful. Thank you for your assistance."
