Can I dispute my W2 earnings?
I worked for a company that made us take a company truck home so that we could go directly from our homes to our first appointment. This way, the owner did not have to open the place earlier to let us get our vehicles. Every vehicle had a GPS tracking device on it and employees were fired if they used the vehicle for anything but work.
My former employer is adding ,000 to my line one pay as a vehicle fringe benefit. We also had /month deducted from our pay for the use of the vehicle as well as /month for the use of a mandatory company cell phone, which we were also prohibited from using for personal reasons (curious that he did not add that as a fringe benefit).
Can I dispute the ,000 added to my gross pay with the IRS?

Ask your boss for documentation to prove the $3000 plus the $80 per month and the $30 for cell phone. First, you can claim this on your taxes as work expense. Second, tell your boss that you called the IRS to see how that would affect your taxes and the IRS wants your boss to make sure that he has to count it against his business expenses multiplied by the number of employees that got hit the way you did. That could be a huge chunk off his deductions which could hurt quite a bit….if he was going to try and claim your deduction as his.

I would definitely call the irs like the first answer said. That really sounds shady and your boss should not be able to get away with that. If you call the irs it may actually prompt them into investigating more into what is really going on with the company you work for.

Call the IRS and ask. They are very helpful.
