Am I Impacted?

Does your W-2 Include “Plus GLT (C-Box 12)?”

• • Yes: Use the W-2 marked Batch #04214 (or higher)
    Note: This is not a Form W-2c (Corrected Wage and Tax Statement)
  • No: Use the W-2 Marked Batch #03776 or higher

Issue Summary

W-2s in Batch #03776 that include “Plus GTL” in the gross pay calculations contain errors. This impacts regular faculty and staff employed at over 0.75 FTE during 2025. These employees should discard W-2 marked Batch #03776

Employees Not Impacted

Errors were only identified on W-2s that include Group Term Life (GTL) insurance.

Student employees, adjuncts, and employees at less than 0.75 FTE are not impacted.

These individuals may use their W-2 from Batch #03776 to file taxes and will not receive a corrected statement.

If you have already filed your taxes with an incorrect form

1. Notify your preparer: If you use a CPA or accountant, inform them that a corrected W-2 is available. If your preparer requires a W-2c, please contact payroll@augsburg.edu for assistance.
2. Wait for your initial return to process: The IRS recommends waiting until your original return is fully processed before filing an amendment.
3. How to Amend:
   • CPAs: Provide them with the W-2 with Batch #04214 once received.
   • Tax Software (TurboTax, H&R Block, etc.): Use the built-in “Amend a Return” feature once the software updates.

We are grateful for your patience and understanding throughout this process. Please do not hesitate to reach out to payroll@augsburg.edu with any specific questions.
