I received my W2 from my employer and I noticed that there is a 14000 (less) dollar difference from the previous year. Nothing income wise has changed for me other than a 500 dollar raise. No one can seem to tell me why the change is so drastic. Im looking for any information that would help me understand. I didnt change anything from the year prior. I also pay into teacher retirement and the amount on my W2 is not the total amount that I paid. My employer doesn't seem concerned, but I am.
