fyi...that your "hourly pay" is pay based on your labor rate listed on your pay stub. Money earned in exchange for labor is actually "labor capital" and not "income". IRS forces accounting firms and corporations to intentionally misclassify (accounting fraud) your labor capital as income so they can get a cut of it. Otherwise, they legally cannot collect payroll taxes unless you work 1. For the Federal Gov't, 2. Work On Federal Lands, or 3. In an occupation on the Federal Excise tax list. https://capitalvsincome.com/
The way to fix this is file form 4852, correct your W-2 by making Box 1 value zero, and then file a 1040-X amended return asking the IRS to return all of your payroll tax. Use the three item list above and "labor capital" for explanation on form 4852 and send a certified letter to your employer asking them to correct all W-2s going back 5 Tax Years (they may not do it, but it is the request that matters). I'm now working on year 5 of collecting payroll taxes from the IRS, and setting up lawsuit to go back to 1987 and try for a nationwide injunction blocking IRS from collecting payroll tax. [3 years collected already, 1 being processed, 1 being filed now].
Note it is also theft and Constitutional violation of 4th Amendment because labor is your property which cannot be taken with being charged with a crime and due process. DRAFT response letter if IRS harasses you: https://patriots.win/p/16aTeiSrDS/repost-irs-takedown-letter-draft/c/
