Employer Is Taking Out Withholdings Despite No SSN Being Given

Employer Is Taking Out Withholdings Despite No SSN Being Given

This is highly illegal and the employer must compensate the withholdings immediately or face legal action if no Social Security Number (SSN) was given. A Form W-2 with a missing SSN should have no withholdings taken out because if deductions do occur then the funds will not be recoverable due to the missing SSN.
