I processed a PR82 on 01/4/16, with a date if 12/31/15. This was for an overpayment that was repaid. I used the 2015 date for the correction so that w2 would be correct for 2015. All year end totals balanced for 2015.
Now when I am trying to balance Q1 2016 with a PR294, the report isn't balancing to what the expected total would be. All taxable and withheld amounts are off by the amount of the 2015 adjustment. Is this a "phantom variance" or does this need to be corrected for 2016 via PR82?
