Reply to comment by debbiewith2 in My mother passed away and my father told me to pay 3000 dollars for the W2 salary from my mother. by AlwaysNextGeneration

See the reply.

That is why I ask here. Shouldn't the W2 tax already be paid before the employer gives the W2 Check? If so, I guess that 3000 dollar is a scam.

I can't tell it and that was what I had too. But my mother worked in a big company, so it shouldn't be working "under the table" to avoid the tax from the W-2 form or W-2 whatever.

I guess maybe the W-2 tax wasn't true.

I think the problem is not you do not understand or what. I don't understand too. How can the detective closed the case because my father signed the paper for returning the check fraud amount immediately? It just doesn't make sense. My father returned the fraud after telling me I need to pay the 3000 dollar W2 Tax. Thus, if it wasn't working "under the table", then I think the W-2 tax wasn't true.

Thank you for your answering.

If that is your question, then delete everything else in your post, other than the fact that your mother passed. Generally estimated taxes are withheld and then when the final tax return is filled there is a refund or taxes due. We don’t know if she under-withheld, overwithheld, or properly withheld. You would need to see her 1040. You also mentioned a will, which is why I suggested looking at the 1041 as well.

But wasn't the tax already paid if the salary check I got was from the W2 form?

Tax may or may not have been withheld, but that doesn’t change how much was OWED.
