    Ask your employer for a corrected W-2. Ask your employer to put a dollar amount in all Box 14 fields. 

     

    The IRS will probably read that percentage as a dollar amount, which would be wrong.

     

    Have your employer read the instructions for completing Box 14 in a W-2 at IRS Instructions for W-2.
