I just filed my Form W-2 and W-3 on line at
I was considering filing only a W-3c to correct this error, since the W-2 is correct. However, the instructions for Form W-3c state that you can file a W-3c without a W-2c only to correct an EIN on a previously filed W-3. The W-3c instructions also state:
"If your only changes to the Forms W-2c and Forms W-3c are to the state and local data, do not send either copy A of Form W-2c or Form W-3c to the SSA." (page 4 of the Instructions.)
Do I take this to mean that neither the SSA nor the IRS cares that the state wages and income tax data on the W-3 do not match that on the W-2 as long as the W-2 is correct and all the Federal data on the W-3 is correct?
