Question about W2 of $19.74

[rajunallappa-msn]

I am a retired individual but still file taxes since my spouse works and also due to income from interest and withdrawals from IRA account. I just received a W2 from my previous employer for $ 19.74. Am I supposed to report it? if so will it impact my retired status?

Yes, you must report the w2. No status change, you are still retired. Some retired people continue to get w2s from prior employers, not a concern.

if it's for 2021 it needs to be reported on your 2021 return.

if so will it impact my retired status? - no it's way too small if you're asking about Social Security benefits.

Thank you so much for your timely response. I added the W2 and am good. Strange part is the my federal tax refund got reduced by around $13 for adding a W2 income of $19.74.
