W2 doesn’t match my last pay stub and has the wrong address.

I’m part time only, so no work insurance, employee car expense, or anything thing extra. My wages on W2 show I made about $30 more than what I actually, I entered both amounts it doesn’t change the return amount either way, so is it necessary to have it corrected or is the another reason it could be higher? I just don’t understand how I could have $30 more that’s tax eligible when I didn’t even make it at all. I started in April and our pay period ended on the last day on the year so we didn’t have any over lapse as far as that. Should I worry about it or just go head and file?

Your employer may calculate your wages differently, especially since you are part-time, or it could be due to rounding differences  You should ask your payroll office about the difference

You should use the figures on your W-2 on your tax return.  A copy of the W-2 goes to the IRS and they will match it with your return.
