How to I view a W2 from 2019?

Just to clarify, are you trying to view a W2 that you entered on TurboTax or are you trying to find your W2 to import?

Please click How do I import or enter my W-2? to learn more.

Requirements to successfully import your W-2 directly from your employer

• Your payroll provider needs to be a TurboTax Import Partner (we can tell this using your employer's EIN).
• Your W-2 must be available for import. Most are ready by February 1 and some are disabled after the April filing deadline.
• We'll need the Box 1 amount from your W-2.
• You can also use the year-to-date YTD gross income from your year-end pay stub.
• In some cases, we'll need the Box d Control Number from your W-2, but only if your payroll provider requires this for the import (not all of them do).

If TurboTax doesn't recognize your employer's EIN for any reason and you're using TurboTax Online or the TurboTax Mobile App, you'll have the option to snap a photo of your W-2 using.

Yes! I need the employer ID #

Your tax return printout from TurboTax will include extra documentation and calculation worksheets for your files but not W-2s, 1099s, or any other forms from your employer, bank, brokerage, etc. because TurboTax didn't generate those forms.

TurboTax does not have a copy of your W-2—the Wage & Tax Statement—issued to you by your employer, (nor does TurboTax have copies of your 1099’s). You should always save those documents for your own records.

You could ask the employer(s) for copies or you can get a copy from Social Security.      To get a copy of a W-2 from Social Security, please see the link below:

If you saved a pdf of your completed tax return, the worksheets will show the W-2 information you entered, but not the actual W-2.
