Received w2 and 1099-misc and each of the forms has the same amount, which one do i file?

the amounts are the same so im confused on my i am reporting that income twice. the w2 has taken taxes out and the 1099 adds the same "income" to my total income for the year, which is not correct..

0 1 399

If both forms are reporting income for the same work, enter just the W-2 (since it reports the withholding).

If the 1099 was reporting something else, like commissions or bonus, only then would you enter that form as well.
