Do you have a TurboTax Online account?

We'll help you get started or pick up where you left off.

My W-2 reflects that I paid the full 6.2% for social security. No tax payments were deferred. Why is Turbo Tax saying I am getting a W-2c?

You most likely received the message in error.  You can proceed to file your taxes as normal.  

 

This message was intended for individuals who deferred Social Security and/or certain self-employment taxes. 

 

The issue has been resolved.  

 

The Coronavirus, Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) allows employers to defer the deposit and payment of the employer's share of Social Security taxes and self-employed individuals to defer payment of certain self-employment taxes.  For more information on the Deferral of employment tax deposits and payments through December 31, 2020, click here.

 

Only customers who may legitimately receive a W-2C will get the pop-up.
