I recieved a 2024 w2 and 2025 w2 from my employer. Do i include both in filing for my taxes? Isnt this too early to get a w2 for 2025?

If one of the W-2's you received has tax year 2025 printed on it then that is reported on the 2025 tax return next year.

You should only include the W-2 for 2024 in your current tax filing. The W-2 for 2025 should be used for your tax return next year. Receiving a W-2 for 2025 this early is unusual and likely a mistake. It's a good idea to double-check with your employer to see if the 2025 W-2 was issued in error.

Here are the key points:

• Include 2024 W-2: Use the 2024 W-2 for your 2024 tax return.
• Exclude 2025 W-2: Do not include the 2025 W-2 in your 2024 tax return.
• Contact Your Employer: Reach out to your HR department or payroll administrator to confirm whether the 2025 W-2 was issued by mistake.
• Request a Correction: If it was an error, ask them to issue a corrected W-2
