Hi there, @jcamama.
I'd be glad to help you correct your W2/W3 tax forms in QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT). To do this, you can create your W-2c and W-3c in QuickBooks and print them on perforated paper only (not pre-printed). Once done, you’ll need to file the W-2c and W-3c manually with the Social Security Administration.
Here's how:
- Open QuickBooks Desktop
- Select Employees, then Payroll Center.
- Click the File Forms tab.
- Select Annual Form W-2c/W-3c - corrected Wage and Tax Statement, then Create Form.
- Click the employee’s last name.
- Select OK.
- Choose the employee(s) who need a W-2c. Select Review/Edit.
- Answer the question: Have you made the W-2 corrections in QuickBooks Desktop?
If Yes - The current QuickBooks Desktop info shows in the Correct information column on the W-2c. Enter the Previously Reported amount for the items that should be corrected.
If No - The current QuickBooks Desktop info shows in the Previously Reported column on the W-2c. Review each W-2c worksheet and enter the correct amounts in the Correct Information column.
- Review each page and select Next as needed.
- Check the box Check if this is a W-2c (corrected W-2).
- Fill in only the lines that need to be fixed in both the Previously Reported and Correct Information columns. Do this on Federal, State, and local info as needed.
- Remove the amounts from the remaining lines. Right-click on the amounts and select Override, then delete the amounts. Do this on Federal, State, and local info as needed.
For complete guidelines, please check out this resource: Fix an incorrect W-2 and W-3.
