employees have consented to eW-2 all W-2s for the Social Security Number for the selected tax year will be
included.
Wage Discrepancies: One of the most frequent questions from employees regarding a Form W-2 is why the
taxable wage information on the W-2 does not match the amount on their last pay stub. The most common
reason for this is the result of reductions in taxable compensation due to items such as medical and dental
premiums, retirement contributions, or other pre-tax deductions. For a detailed breakdown of the most common
reasons for differences in these totals, please refer to “Understanding your Form W-2.”
