<prompt> Human: Ive been working at a local fast food place since September of 2014. Ive had nothing but problems with this place and Im curious to see what all your reactions are. Heres a little back story. Firstly this is a family run business, so paychecks and finances are done by the owners hand and his wife. My first TWO pay stubs had another employees name, address, phone number, and SSN uncensored. Obvious WTF moments. If it werent for me telling said employee, she wouldnt have known. The physical pay CHECKS had my name and correct numbers but the stubs were incorrect. Fast forward to now. Tax season. Well I get my W-2 and it says a whooping 362 was earned by me in 2014 over the course of 4 months actual number should be about 1600. I confront him about it, ask other employees to check their forms and gather all my pay stubs. His reply today was oh, my tax guy wrote a W-2 for one of those original two checks that were goofed. Give me your pay stubs... so I dont have to do an amended w-2 If its any worth anything, he didnt charge me a penny for state or federal tax over the last few months either.Sounds fishy to me, what do you all think? What options do I have? Is any of this okay? Few side notes; I live in California. Only 20, so only ever filed once, last year. My previous jobs w-2 came in, so Id like to get this fixed ASAP. Wrote this on my phone at 3am, so apologies for grammar, spelling, syntax, or format errors. Im off to bed but looking forward to replies and am eager to answer any questions in the morning. Thanks all.Edit: Thank you all so much for the great replies, really appreciate it!!! Gotta love reddit  <response>: The other four responses so far are all correct, but let me elaborate:Your employer is not paying their payroll taxes on your salary. Therefore, theyre not going to be forthcoming with a correct W-2, since that would obligate them to have paid those taxes. This is going to get YOU in tax trouble with the government, since you are going to be submitting figures that disagree with the businesss. Give me your pay stubs... so I dont have to do an amended w-2This is called destroying the evidence.The problems for you include:a if you get fired, you wont have unemployment insuranceb you wont be getting social security credit for working this jobc if you file false tax returns, you are getting yourself into legal trouble on your ownd if you dont file false tax returns, its going to be a very messy situation where you are saying one thing and the employer is saying something else and the tax authorities wont be sure which one of you is lying. Investigation should show the business is lying, but...My personal suggestions: rat the employer out to the state and federal tax authorities. Look for another job. Dont put yourself in a position to be screwed try to get paid for any work youve done and dont do any more work - the employer will likely steal your last pay check if given the chance. Seek advice from the tax authorities about what to do this year; you cant get in tax trouble if you follow their advice.
