My son is a college student. His employer, summer job, generated a W2 for him that has nothing in Box 1 (income)or 2 (fed tax withheld). He made between about $5000 over the summer. Does he need to file?

If he was an employee and that was his only income with nothing withheld he doesn’t have a filing requirement. Be sure that nothing was withheld by asking his employer.
If that is his only source of income then no
Please clarify your question.
Please contact us again with and provide some additional details.
After contacting his employer, that was a mistake, and the W-2 is being corrected.
