What does IRS Code 806 mean on my transcript? Need help understanding

Code 806 is your withholding amount - basically the tax that was taken out of your paychecks during the year. This is a normal code that everyone has on their transcript and isn't a delay indicator. It's actually a good thing because it shows how much you paid in throughout the year.

hey guys instead of trying to decode these transcript codes yourself, try taxr.ai - its only a buck and it explains everything in plain english. saved me hours of googling https://taxr.ai

its annoying how the IRS uses all these cryptic codes without explaining anything to us normies 🙄

these codes are like trying to read hieroglyphics without the rosetta stone fr

Check the amount next to the 806 code - should match your W2 box 2 total if you only had one job
