Was I dreaming ??? Or do I remember hearing on "TAX TALK TODAY" that if you have a W-2 with the wrong SS number you can now still file the tax return with that incorrect number...
You simply need to put the wrong number in the tax program on the w-2 imput screen....
Did I not hear that ?? or am I dreaming ???
I ask because my software will NOT let me do that ......
Am I wrong or is my software wrong for not letting me ...
We make corrections in the w-2 input screen for wrong addresses, and I can change the SS number but my software won't pass efile requirements when I do it ...
Should it ???
I thought it was a bit strange when I heard it on Tax Talk Today .... but I'm sure that they said we could now do that ... and by putting the wrong number on the input screen that would make the IRS aware of the error so they didn't go after the person who the number belonged to for those wages.
