W-2 forms mistake affects 2,500 CUNY and SUNY workers

A state screwup means some 2,500 CUNY and SUNY employees got incorrect W-2 forms, which they need to file taxes.

The state comptroller’s office failed to add a new box to the form related to a retirement deduction.

“Our office discovered that an error occurred and we immediately reached out to both SUNY and CUNY so they could inform employees,” a spokesman for Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli said.

The glitch impacted about 500 workers at the City University of New York and&nbs🦩p;2,000 at the State University of Ne༒w York.

DiNapoli’s office said workers should have new forms around March 6.
