Metropolitan State University of 丹佛 employees will be able to access their 2023 W-2 and tax information in 工作日 beginning Friday. However, employees 应该 be aware of several minor changes on their W-2 纳税申报表.  

变化1:D框

The Control Number field in Box D identifies the employee’s unique record within the 密歇根州立大学丹佛 system. As the IRS does not require this number for a W-2 to be successfully filed, the control number is not an available option within the 工作日 system and is not editable.  

Change 2: Boxes 18-20

以前, this series of boxes included information related to the City and County of 丹佛’s local tax. However, the local tax that 密歇根州立大学丹佛 employees pay is categorized as “OPT Occupational.” This is considered a “Head Tax,” meaning that (regardless of wages or income) it is a per-month tax that employers must withhold. In some cases, the employer will match or pay a portion to the locality as well.  

密歇根州立大学丹佛 does not pay into 丹佛 local tax since the University pays occupation taxes. Since Occupational 税 are “Head” taxes and not “Income” taxes, 工作日 is meeting the requirement to provide the information by reporting this in Box 14. 

Change 3: Pertaining to employees who move out of state

Also new this tax cycle, an employee who moves out of state during the year will now receive two W-2 forms: one for Colorado and one for their new state. 以前, information for both states could be entered in boxes 15-17. However, within the 工作日 system the states are split into separate forms. 

How to access your W-2

All W-2 forms will be available for current employees to review Friday. To access your W-2: 

  • Click on “Menu” in the upper left corner of 工作日. 
  • 选择“支付.” 
  • Select “Tax documents,” which is under the “My Statements” heading. 
    • Employees can opt out of paper W-2 forms and print documents as needed.
