So if someone holds onto his November and December paychecks and deposits them only in January the income can be said to count for the new year? That can't be right as then the W2 would be incorrect. Then again it's the IRS we're talking about... the rule probably only works to favor the IRS. :rolleyes:

Only if the issuing party is holding onto the checks not the receiving party.

I think it matters when the check is in hand, not when it is deposited.

No, because the employee was given the checks in November and December. It's the date on the check that counts, not the deposit date.

And I found some potential office space ^

On the late W-2: according to BoA - from whom I'm still waiting for a brokerage consolidated 1099 - the economic recovery act changed the date to February 15.

Gee and the government wanders why we as a country are in such trouble. We need to set a deadlinea and stick too it. Just like the digital transition issue. When are we as a society going to say, this is the it if you cant get it done so be it. Just like having to pay for postal people to be working till midnight on April 15th. I really think that people that turn in their taxes after the scheduled pick-up time should have to pay a tax to mail it on that day to help the Post Office cover their finaces of covering other peoples problems.

Um, what?:D I think that translates to I've lost half my retirement in the last 12 months.:p
