Do you have a TurboTax Online account?

We'll help you get started or pick up where you left off.

I didn’t get any of my W2’s and I only know how to do my taxes on here when my W2’s are already uploaded on here. But that’s not the case this year. What do I do?

I worked at a temp agency and I don’t think they are compatible with turbo tax so my W2 wasn’t automatically uploaded like I’m used to so I don’t know what to do

You should have received a paper copy of the W-2s back in February from the employer. You should contact them for another copy if you didn't get them or lost them.

 

You can go to the IRS web site and get a copy of the transcript of them: https://www.irs.gov/individuals/get-transcript

Even if you worked for a temp agency the temp agency should have given you a W-2.  Call them, stop in, email them or snail mail them and get your W-2.  

 

 

 

W-2's come from your employer, and they have until Jan. 31 to issue it.  Some employers allow you to import the W-2 through the software, but for security reasons you still need information from the actual W-2 to import it.  You might need to phone, email and/or snail mail an old employer to make sure they know where to send your W-2.

Other ways to get W-2’s:

 

Pay Social Security $86 per W-2:

You can get a wage and income transcript from the IRS:  It will not show the actual W-2, 1099’s, etc, but will show the income information the IRS received.  It will not, however, show your state information. It will only show the federal information.
