What do I do when Quickbooks made an error on the 2022 W2 forms not matching the 941 Forms amount?

Welcome to the Community, vtbarber. I appreciate your detailed information.

 

If you need to fix something on an employee's W-2, it will depend on the payroll service you're using and if your forms have been filed.

 

Here's some things on W-2 forms that can't be fixed:
 

  • Business Name
  • Business address
  • Employee address
  • Employee prefix (Mr. Mrs., etc.)

 

Since your automated taxes and forms setting was activated, and Intuit filed W-2s for you, you'll need to contact our Customer Care team to request a correction. 


Intuit will fix it if necessary, and file a W-2c form with the SSA. You'll also receive a copy of your W-2c to provide your employee with, and an updated W-3 for record keeping. The agent you speak with can let you know approximately when you and your employee can expect to receive the W-2c and W-3c.

 

You can refer to our Fix an incorrect W-2 & W-3 article for more information about correcting errors on W-2 forms.

 

If there's any additional questions, I'm just a post away. Have a lovely Monday!

When I click the link to your Customer care Support, No where on that page is a contact us button to have a live person talk to me or answer my questions.  The AI help says someone will contact me in 5 minutes. One person called but they said they couldn't help me and to go to another page. That page is the same page as you sent me to. This is frustrating. Make it easier to get help!!!  Quickbooks made the error and they are impossible to get anyone live to help.
