Is there a way to see my YTD W2? I just converted to online and I don't think my W2 is correct. I'd rather correct it now than wait until the end of the year.

Hello, MgtConsultant.

Let's work together and ensure your W-2 forms are correct before the year ends. 

We can use the Payroll Summary report to determine the current data of the W-2 amounts. This also works if you haven't run any payroll yet after converting. Here's how to pull it up: 

1. Go to Reports. 
2. In the search box, type "Payroll Summary."
3. Click the result.
4. Review the employee amounts to find the incorrect data. 

Alternatively, we can also pull up a preview of the W-2 forms. This can work if you've already used QuickBooks Online Payroll after migrating.

Normally, official copies are available on January 13 but you'll be given a period to review it before this date. 

Here's how to review the W-2 form:  

1. Click Taxes, then Payroll Tax.
2. Go to Filings. 
3. Click View on the W-2 forms you want to review. 

I should also mention that in order to do this, we'll want to turn off the payroll and tax form automation. 

Now, we have a couple of scenarios to begin the W-2 amount correction. 

If you have already run payroll before within QuickBooks Online, we can delete and recreate the paychecks with the correct amounts. Although, I'd recommend checking this article first to know more about the deletion process: Delete or void employee paychecks. 

Normally, paychecks would be converted to regular checks after migrating to Online. There may be some issues if you delete these.

So, if you're unable to delete or correct the amounts for the W-2 form, we can contact one of the payroll agents so they can adjust the numbers for you. 

Here's how to reach them: 

1. Click the Help icon.
2. On the pop-up window, click the Contact Us button.
3. Type "correct w-2 forms for employees" in the box, then proceed with Continue.
4. Choose how you want to reach us (phone or chat). 

I'm sure you'll have other payroll-related tasks in the future. So if you need a guide for the year-end or simply want to file your taxes, check out these articles:

I have already run payroll. Your solution sounds really complicated.  Is there any other way to get a glimpse of my 2022?

Hi there, MgtConsultant. 

I'd be happy to share with you how to see YTD W2 in QuickBooks Online. 

As mentioned by my colleague above, you can find the YTD information by pulling up a report in QuickBooks Online (QBO). Running the Payroll Summary report shows you your employee's total wages, deductions, contributions, and taxes as well. 

This will give you a view of the information that will be included on the W-2 at the end of the year. Ensure that you set a date range for this year to see the correct information. 

You can follow the steps shared by @jamespaul on how to pull up these reports in QuickBooks Online.

On the other hand, you can contact our Customer Care Team. They can take a look at your account and review the W-2 forms for corrections.

Here's how:

1. Click the (?) Help icon in the upper right-hand corner of the Dashboard.
2. Select Talk to a Human.
3. Enter a short description of your concern and press Enter.
4. Click I still need a human.
5. Select Contact Us to connect with our live support.
6. Choose to Get a callback.
