Employer didn't update my address when moving states. I did not live in KY last year but paid KY income tax. I filed a KY Return as a non-resident but it was rejected because I put $0 as KY income. Issue is that my W2 states I made income in KY, even though I lived in AZ the full year. "Description of Error: Form W2 filed with KY wages, but not reported on Form 740-NP, Section B, line 1, column B." I reached out to employer to see if they could issue a corrected W2, but they said they couldn't make any changes. What do I do?

If you are saying that KY withholding was incorrect and you did not work or live in KY during 2022, then you can request a refund. The Department of Revenue in KY will issue you a refund of withholding if warranted.

You have to convince the KY Dept. of Revenue that you are entitled to a refund. You write back to them explaining the circumstances. A confirming letter from your employer would be helpful.
