Goodluck with that boring stuff! ;) Title: Re: can someone explain to me about W-2? Post by: backinsaddle on January 29, 2008, 05:50:18 PM It's a statement your employer gives you for the prior year worked. You base your work related income taxes off the numbers on your W-2. They are required to provide to you by Jan 31 of each year.

If you are only 17, then your parents are probably claiming you as a dependent on taxes. DO NOT go to a tax place that is not aware of your whole family information. That could cause a mess for your parents and you would probably regret the $40-75 they charge. Title: Re: can someone explain to me about W-2?

I am waiting until I can get to my ex g/fs house to get my possessions so I can file my taxes next weekend. Title: Re: can someone explain to me about W-2? Post by: Anoriginal on January 30, 2008, 03:01:23 PM A W-2 is something you love when you're younger or not making a lot of money. It usually means it's tax time and you'll be getting a big fat check back from the government. Later in life, you probably won't get a W-2 (depending on your employment arrangements) and tax time sucks because the estimated taxes you've paid four times in the past year isn't quite enough to cover your income. So, you are the one stroking a big fat check to the government. ;)
