＞ I have a total of just under $5000 in income from private work I did last year.

I am a so called Independent Contractor and not a company employee.

＞ My employer obtained an EIN number for my tax return and issued it to me
I filed a tax return with the W2 I received

My employer has been trying to get the form to send to the IRS to take effect this year. Your employer filed an EIN
this year in order to activate the form to submit to the IRS.

＞ The EIN number came back rejected because it was issued after this year.

I think that means I don't have an EIN at the time of employment or contract, so
since I did not apply for an EIN number this year at the time of employment,
payment for this year's work will be for income in 2022, the IRS data will show 2021 I think that means it is not treated as
income for the year 2021.

＞ I don't know how to resolve this as there is nothing to correct.

＄ ， I got 5 000 last year, and I think the job （ is probably a Baby Sitter type job
but if it is a ） payment, I do not need an IRS form.
If you treat it as a sole proprietorship on Schedule C, there should be no problem.

＞ If it was rejected by electronic filing,
＞ you can send the print out to the IRS. I am not sure if this is correct or not.

Reject means that the form was not accepted because it is different from the IRS data, so
you can e-file the form again
without using the form （ or the EIN number ） on the form, and it will be accepted. again and it will be accepted.
I think it is better not to file by Paper
because it will complicate matters.

However, since we do not know the actual contents of the form （ W － 2 ） etc., we cannot guarantee
that the above is correct. If you need to
check the contents of this message urgently, please send an e-mail to
the e-mail address in the message.

If you are filing as a sole proprietorship, you will be paid and will be penalized
after April 18.

Look closely at the W-2 form.　Box a is the SS number.　You cannot put an EIN here. So, the W-2 itself is wrong.

I think you put EIN in Schedule C of tax return, but Schedule C has 1099 as income and W-2 cannot be adjusted.　

You should ask the person who issued the W-2 to correct the W-2, （ cancel ） and issue a 1099-NEC with the SS number, or report it as Other Income on Schedule C without a 1099.　 （ In that case, do not put the EIN on Schedule C ）.

#76 Tax Return Today 16:34
Tax man,

Thank you so much for your prompt reply. You are absolutely right, I was just reporting my income from babysitting last year. My employer was very considerate and requested that I file a W-2 instead of a 1099, but due to the date I got my EIN, I am now in the situation I am in now. I would like to switch to Schedule C and file again, but I am worried that it will cause problems for my employer who has already completed the tax return.

Recently, I feel that the atmosphere of BibiNavi has lost its old atmosphere of a place where Japanese people who are trying their best to help each other in the U.S. and there are many slanderous comments. I thank you from the bottom of my heart. Thank you very much.

If it's a W2, they should have done it with a SSN from the beginning, so I don't understand why the EIN comes up.
