What’s wrong with the one you have?   Get another copy or a corrected W2 from your employer.

If you need a corrected Form W-2 because there is an error on yours, you can contact your employer or payroll department to get a corrected one.

 

If you lost your Form W-2 and you need it to complete your taxes, you should also be able to get a copy from your employer or from your employee portal.  Your employer is required to provide you with a copy.

 

You can also obtain your wage information via an IRS Wage and Income Transcript. See: Get your tax records and transcripts

 

If you need it to complete your taxes and you can't get a copy you can use your final pay stub to file Form 4852 with your tax return. See: Form 4852
 

You can also request a copy from the SSA for a fee. Social Security Wage Statement
