There are typically four copies of the Form W-2 that your employer will issue to you. One copy is for Federal (Copy A), two are for state and local (Copy B & C), and the last one you will  keep for your records (Copy D). You would need to attach one of the copies of the W-2 to your tax return, specifically the Form 1040-A and mail it in, if you are filing your tax return by mail.

Note: If filing by mail, there should be an instructions page that will print along with your tax return.

Help! I only got one W-2 from my employer, I don't know how to attach my W-2 to My federal and to my state returns when I only have 1- W-2. Can I copy it?

Yes and keep a copy for yourself.

Are you e-filing? Then you do not need to attach any W-2 to your return - TurboTax will do it electronically.

@BillM223 1st of all thank you so much for trying to help me and quickly! I am mailing in my returns. I can’t put my hands on my last year return and to file online you have to have your last year return to verify to are who you are.
