Yes, you can delete the W-2's from last year that may show up in the W-2 summary, if you are no longer working for that company.

Use the 'delete' trash can next to the W-2 to remove.

    What I mean is whether I can delete my prior year W-2 from my current employer. The other specialist said I can delete my prior year W-2 if it is from a previous employer I no longer work for.

    You may delete the W-2 entries that carried over from the previous year's tax return.

     

    If need be, you will be able to access W-2 information from the previous year's tax return in Tax Home.  Follow these steps:

     

    • Down the left side of the screen click on Tax Home.
    • At the bottom of the page, click on Your tax returns & documents. 
    • Select  Download/print return (PDF).
    • Access your previous year’s tax returns to view tax information.
