W-2 Form

[Guest Tad77]

Does anyone know if Box 13 should be checked by the employer on Form w-2 for employees that participate in a multiemployer plan? This is the box that is checked so that the IRS knows that IRA contributions are limited.

The Box 13 instructions indicate the following:

• Retirement plan. Check this box if the employee was an “active participant” (for any part of the year) in any of the following:

1. A qualified pension, profit-sharing, or stock-bonus plan described in section 401(a) (including a 401(k) plan).

Edit - Sorry, I didn't see the duplicate thread where this question was already answered.
