The number of parts you need is determined by which government agencies you are reporting to.

W-2C CORRECTION FORMS
If you need to correct a W2 form that has already been filed with the SSA because the original has errors, you will need to file a W2C form (W-2 Correction Form).
This is different than a standard W2 form, and requires a few additional steps. You’ll need to fill in all of the fields, once for the information originally filed, and once for the correct information (if applicable).
NEW for 2023… you must file the W2C form with the SSA in the same manner as the original W2.
- If you e-filed, you must e-file the correction.
- If you printed and mailed the original Copy A, you must also print and mail the W2C.
You can also file W2C forms online and let us do the work for you!
