To report foreign wages on your 1040 tax form, you need to fill out Form 2555 or Form 2555-EZ to claim the Foreign Earned Income Exclusion. This allows you to exclude a certain amount of foreign earned income from your taxable income. You will then report any remaining foreign wages on your 1040 tax form as part of your total income.

What if you get a w2 after you already filed your taxes?

What if you filed taxes with the 1099g but didn't put it on the line the 1099g goes that you filed it just like a normal W2?

Form 1099-G reports various government payments, including unemployment compensation, state tax refunds, alternative trade adjustment assistance (ATAA) payments, taxable grants and Department of Agriculture payments, and market gain on CCC payments. It is most often seen reporting state tax refunds and unemployment compensation. If your 1099-G reported a state tax refund, and you had no tax benefit from your state income tax withholding in the prior year (in other words, you didn't itemize your deductions on Schedule A), you do not have to report it or pay tax on it. If you reported it incorrectly as wages, you have paid more income tax than you owed. If you included unemployment compensation with your wages, your total tax liability will be correct. However, the IRS matches information forms such as W-2s and 1099s to the information on your income tax return. They are not concerned about you reporting more wages than they know about from W-2s. But they will notify you that you have not reported the unemployment compensation, because it does not appear on the correct line of your income tax return. The problem will be easily solved with a letter and copies of your W-2s and 1099s. In future, I recommend you save yourself the scary correspondence with the IRS by reading the forms and instructions very carefully.


What needs to be do with a W2 tax form?

An IRS form W-2 is used by employers to report wages and withheld taxes to both the employee who earned the wages and the IRS. If you earned wages from an employer, they are required to send you a copy of the form that they send to the IRS no later than January 31. You should check to make sure the amounts paid to you and withheld for federal & state taxes are correct (check against your last pay stub of last year). You will need to report the amounts in the appropriate lines of your federal tax return (for most people, form 1040). You may owe additional tax, or may be due a refund of part or all of the tax withheld.
