Don't See How Arlo
He would have to RECEIVE it in two different years, or at least split the pay such that he receives such an effect split between W-2s for two different years.
If this has already happened in the past, I'm afraid the goose is cooked.
That's the misery of W-2s -
1) They are not in your control
2) Neither you nor the client can correct them if they're wrong
3) No tax planning opportunities
