Copy B—To Be Filed With Employee’s FEDERAL Tax Return.
This information is being furnished to the Internal Revenue Service.
Department of the Treasury—Internal Revenue Service
Notice to Employee
Do you have to file? Refer to the Instructions for Forms 1040
and 1040-SR to determine if you are required to file a tax return.
Even if you don’t have to file a tax return, you may be eligible for
a refund if box 2 shows an amount or if you are eligible for any
credit.
Earned income credit (EIC). You may be able to take the EIC
for 2021 if your adjusted gross income (AGI) is less than a
certain amount. The amount of the credit is based on income
and family size. Workers without children could qualify for a
smaller credit. You and any qualifying children must have valid
social security numbers (SSNs). You can’t take the EIC if your
investment income is more than the specified amount for 2021
or if income is earned for services provided while you were an
inmate at a penal institution. For 2021 income limits and more
information, visit www.irs.gov/EITC. See also Pub. 596, Earned
Income Credit. Any EIC that is more than your tax liability is
refunded to you, but only if you file a tax return.
Employee’s social security number (SSN). For your
protection, this form may show only the last four digits of your
SSN. However, your employer has reported your complete SSN
to the IRS and SSA.
Clergy and religious workers. If you aren’t subject to social
security and Medicare taxes, see Pub. 517, Social Security and
Other Information for Members of the Clergy and Religious
Workers.
Corrections. If your name, SSN, or address is incorrect, correct
Copies B, C, and 2 and ask your employer to correct your
employment record. Be sure to ask the employer to file Form
W-2c, Corrected Wage and Tax Statement, with the Social
Security Administration (SSA) to correct any name, SSN, or money
amount error reported to the SSA on Form W-2. Be sure to get
your copies of Form W-2c from your employer for all corrections
made so you may file them with your tax return. If your name and
SSN are correct but aren’t the same as shown on your social
security card, you should ask for a new card that displays your
correct name at any SSA office or by calling 800-772-1213. You
may also visit the SSA website at www.SSA.gov.
Cost of employer-sponsored health coverage (if such cost is
provided by the employer). The reporting in box 12, using
code DD, of the cost of employer-sponsored health coverage is
for your information only. The amount reported with code DD
is not taxable.
Credit for excess taxes. If you had more than one employer in
2021 and more than $8,853.60 in social security and/or Tier 1
railroad retirement (RRTA) taxes were withheld, you may be able
to claim a credit for the excess against your federal income tax.
If you had more than one railroad employer and more than
$5,203.80 in Tier 2 RRTA tax was withheld, you may also be
able to claim a credit. See the Instructions for Forms 1040 and
1040-SR and Pub. 505, Tax Withholding and Estimated Tax.

Instructions for Employee
(See also Notice to Employee on the back of Copy B.)
Box 1. Enter this amount on the wages line of your tax return.
Box 2. Enter this amount on the federal income tax withheld line of your
tax return.
Box 5. You may be required to report this amount on Form 8959,
Additional Medicare Tax. See the Instructions for Forms 1040 and
1040-SR to determine if you are required to complete Form 8959.
Box 6. This amount includes the 1.45% Medicare Tax withheld on all
Medicare wages and tips shown in box 5, as well as the 0.9% Additional
Medicare Tax on any of those Medicare wages and tips above $200,000.
Box 8. This amount is not included in box 1, 3, 5, or 7. For information
on how to report tips on your tax return, see the Instructions for Forms
1040 and 1040-SR.
You must file Form 4137, Social Security and Medicare Tax on
Unreported Tip Income, with your income tax return to report at least
the allocated tip amount unless you can prove with adequate records
that you received a smaller amount. If you have records that show the
actual amount of tips you received, report that amount even if it is more
or less than the allocated tips. Use Form 4137 to figure the social
security and Medicare tax owed on tips you didn’t report to your
employer. Enter this amount on the wages line of your tax return. By
filing Form 4137, your social security tips will be credited to your social
security record (used to figure your benefits).
Box 10. This amount includes the total dependent care benefits that
your employer paid to you or incurred on your behalf (including amounts
from a section 125 (cafeteria) plan). Any amount over $5,000 is also
included in box 1. Complete Form 2441, Child and Dependent Care
Expenses, to figure any taxable and nontaxable amounts.
Box 11. This amount is (a) reported in box 1 if it is a distribution made to
you from a nonqualified deferred compensation or nongovernmental
section 457(b) plan, or (b) included in box 3 and/or box 5 if it is a prior
year deferral under a nonqualified or section 457(b) plan that became
taxable for social security and Medicare taxes this year because there is
no longer a substantial risk of forfeiture of your right to the deferred
amount. This box shouldn’t be used if you had a deferral and a
distribution in the same calendar year. If you made a deferral and
received a distribution in the same calendar year, and you are or will be
age 62 by the end of the calendar year, your employer should file Form
SSA-131, Employer Report of Special Wage Payments, with the Social
Security Administration and give you a copy.
Box 12. The following list explains the codes shown in box 12. You may
need this information to complete your tax return. Elective deferrals (codes
D, E, F, and S) and designated Roth contributions (codes AA, BB, and EE)
under all plans are generally limited to a total of $19,500 ($13,500 if you
only have SIMPLE plans; $22,500 for section 403(b) plans if you qualify for
the 15-year rule explained in Pub. 571). Deferrals under code G are limited
to $19,500. Deferrals under code H are limited to $7,000.
However, if you were at least age 50 in 2021, your employer may have
allowed an additional deferral of up to $6,500 ($3,000 for section
401(k)(11) and 408(p) SIMPLE plans). This additional deferral amount is
not subject to the overall limit on elective deferrals. For code G, the limit
on elective deferrals may be higher for the last 3 years before you reach
retirement age. Contact your plan administrator for more information.
Amounts in excess of the overall elective deferral limit must be included
in income. See the Instructions for Forms 1040 and 1040-SR.
Note: If a year follows code D through H, S, Y, AA, BB, or EE, you made
a make-up pension contribution for a prior year(s) when you were in
military service. To figure whether you made excess deferrals, consider
these amounts for the year shown, not the current year. If no year is
shown, the contributions are for the current year.
A—Uncollected social security or RRTA tax on tips. Include this tax on
Form 1040 or 1040-SR. See the Instructions for Forms 1040 and 1040-SR.
B—Uncollected Medicare tax on tips. Include this tax on Form 1040 or
1040-SR. See the Instructions for Forms 1040 and 1040-SR.

Also includes deferrals under a SIMPLE retirement account that is part

printed from IRS.gov. The SSA is unable to process these forms.
Instead, you can create and submit them online. See E-filing, later.
Due dates. By January 31, 2022, furnish Copies B, C, and 2 to
each person who was your employee during 2021. Mail or
electronically file Copy A of Form(s) W-2 and W-3 with the SSA

E-filing. See the 2021 General Instructions for Forms W-2 and

service. For information, visit the SSA’s Employer W-2 Filing
Instructions & Information website at www.SSA.gov/employer.
