W2 box 1 and 16

I have a simple payroll, no deductions or 401k.   W2 Box 1 is not matching  16.. Some W2"s did not even print State Info.. Just a few of the 35 employees.

W2 box 1 and 16

Hi there, @CSBrewer

 

 I’m here to clarify why the amount in Box 16 of your W-2 doesn't match with  Box 1.

 

Box 1 may not be the same as Box 16 on form W2, depending on the employee’s pre-tax benefits or filing status.

 

To learn more about it, you can check out this article: Understand why the wage amounts are different on your employees' W-2

 

See this article for more details: Print your W-2 forms

 

In addition to this, you can also invite your employees to the workforce and let them view their W-2s online. You can check this article for the complete details: Invite your employees to QuickBooks Workforce to see pay stubs, W-2s.

 

To give more insights about this, check out the following articles:

 

Just in case you want to print W-2, feel free to read this article for the detailed steps and information: Print W-2 and W-3 forms.

 

In case you have other concerns with your W-2s, you can always share them with me. I’ll be around to listen and help you out. Keep safe and more success in your business!
