W-2 Retirement plan box 13

Assuming the box checked in Box 13 is the "Retirement Plan" box, this indicates you were an active participant in a retirement plan during the year,

Here are some steps you can take:

1. Contact HR or Payroll: Clarify why you received this W-2 form and why Box 13 is checked.
2. Plan Update: If it's just a plan update, no action is needed.
3. Error: If it's an error, request a corrected W-2.

Since all boxes are zero, you likely don't need to report this on your income—no income generally means no tax effect—but keep the W-2 for your records.
