W2C Correction Filing Instructions
Correcting a W2 Form
How to correct an error on a W2 using W2C forms.
To correct a W2 form because the original has data errors, file a W2C form (W-2 Correction Form) with the SSA and employee.
Form W2C is different than a standard W2 form, and requires that you fill in all of the fields on the form, including the information originally filed, as well as the correct information.
But first, answer this question: Have you already filed W2 Copy A with the SSA?
Filing W2c forms when the original has already been filed with the SSA
Use Form W2C ONLY if you have already mailed the original W2 Copy A to the SSA, or e-filed is using any W2 e-filing system. You will need to complete and file W2C forms with the SSA, mail one to the employee and provide a file copy for the employer.
Use Form W-2C to:
- Correct errors on Form W-2 or W-2 C filed with the Social Security Administration (SSA).
- Provide a corrected Form W-2 to employees.
Correcting a W2 form that has NOT yet been filed with the SSA
If you discover a mistake on an employee’s W2 form, but have NOT mailed Copy A to the SSA or efiled it, you DO NOT need a W2C form! Only use W2C if the SSA copy has already been filed.
To correct a W2 form in this instance, simply reprint the W2 with the corrected information and provide that to the employee and when filing it with the SSA.
