What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Connecticut
I work for a small company, only 2 employees, plus the boss. I received my W-2 on Thursday, and noticed that the amount under "federal withholding" didn't match the amount that was on my paystubs. I immediately notified my boss, who said he'd bring it back to the bookkeeper (he recently hired this bookkeeper because he got into quite a mess with the company financials).
When I came in this morning, I had a new w-2 on my desk, with all of the same information. There was a note saying that my paystubs were incorrect. I'm now going to OWE $1000 because of this error. If my paystubs indicate that the correct amount of money was being withheld, and it is an error on my employers part, that I had absolutely NO way to knowing about, do I have any legal way to get my w-2 fixed?
