What is a W-2 Form?
What is a W-2 Form?
A W-2 tax form shows the
amount of taxes withheld
from your paycheck for the
year and is used to file your
federal and state taxes.
Here are the basics.
What is a W-2 Form?
The IRS requires employers to report
wage and salary information for
employees on Form W-2. Your W-2 also
reports the amount of federal, state and
other taxes withheld from your paycheck.
Importance of your tax
withholding
When your employer withholds amounts
from your paycheck for federal income
taxes, those amounts are remitted to the IRS
throughout the year.
Importance of your tax
withholding
The IRS requires everyone to make
periodic payments throughout the year;
however, your employer takes care of this
for you.

When you prepare your federal return and
calculate your tax for the year, the
withholding amount your employer reports
on the W-2 must be subtracted from your
tax bill.
Importance of your tax

know whether to expect a refund or make
an additional tax payment. If you file a state
income tax return, the same calculation is
necessary for the amount withheld to pay
your state income taxes.
