What if I do not have my W-2?

Federal Form W-2, Wage and Tax Statement, shows your income and the taxes withheld from your pay for the year. Most people get their W-2 forms by the end of January. You need it to file an accurate tax return.

If you need a copy of your W-2, here is what you should do:

1. Contact your employer. This is your quickest option. Make sure the employer has your correct address. Some employers may even have a W-2 for previous years.
2. Call the IRS at 1-800-829-1040 after February. We will not be able to accept any Federal W-2 that is missing the State information in Boxes 15 through 17.

3. Submit a written request for your Ó£»¨ÊÓƵ wage and/or Ó£»¨ÊÓƵ withholding amounts.
   We do not have access to federal information. If you need federal wage transcripts, you must contact the IRS at 1-800-829-1040 or go to the .
