This is an update for all SFUSD represented employees:

Please be advised of a formatting issue in your 2023 W-2, which was mailed to you on January 30, 2024. Box 14 was inadvertently labeled as “Box 14 amount 2” instead of “Union Dues.” This formatting issue does not impact the amount paid for union dues shown in “Box 14 amount 2” on the 2023 W-2.

SFUSD has been in communication with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) regarding the formatting of the description in Box “14 Other.” According to guidance received from the IRS, the label in Box 14 is considered an informational matter for employees. Therefore, there is no need to distribute 2023 W-2C correction forms to address this issue. Employees should use the 2023 W-2 that was recently mailed.  

We apologize for any confusion this may have caused you. Going forward, our team is correcting internal review practices to identify issues of this nature prior to document distribution.

For your reference, below are two W-2 examples: the first is from the 2022 W-2, and the second is from the 2023 W-2.
