My current address is different than the address on my W-2 which do I use?

I moved in the month of October and W-2 reflects my previous before I moved which one do I use

There will not be an issue if the address on your federal tax return is different then the address on your W-2.  It is your tax return address that needs to be correct if the IRS ever needs to contact you for any reason.

Use the address where you want the IRS to mail you if there is a problem.

What if one w2 address is in Florida but you worked in indiana and the rest are indiana? How would i file?

I have this same question. I'm filling out the FAFSA and it asks for the address on my 1040 Tax Return, however, I moved in September and now my current address is different than the address I used to complete the tax return. I'm not sure how this will affect things.

and it asks for the address on my 1040 Tax Return,

If being asked "specifically and explicitly" for the "address on your 2019 tax return", then that's what you enter.

As this is a public forum, we cannot make updates to your personal account here.

If you have already filed your return, you cannot do anything with TurboTax to update your address.

You can go to the following link and update your information with the IRS directly.

Change of address

If you still need to file your return, you can update your address by logging back into TurboTax.

1. On the black panel on the left, select My Info 
2. Select Edit to the right of your address
3. You will be able to update your address here

• So if your address on your W2s is different then the one you asked them to sent it to will they go to the new place you live?

[Lexi123]

So if your address on your taxes are different than the one you need them to be sent to where would they be sent to 

[CarissaM]

They would be sent to the address on your return.

You should use your current address so that you can receive responses or updates to your filing.

Don't worry if your mailing address on your W-2 form is wrong or has since changed. This won't affect your taxes. Just make sure you've entered your current mailing address in the Personal Info section of TurboTax, which you'll find under Intuit Account on the lower left side of the screen (you may have to go to Tax Home first to get there).

If you expect to get another W-2 from the same employer next year, ask their payroll department to update your address so next year's W-2 doesn't get lost in the mail.

On the other hand, if your name, Social Security number, or any dollar amount(s) on your W-2 are wrong, ask your employer for a corrected W-2 (also known as Form W-2c: Corrected Wage and Tax Statement).
