The important information should be on your pay stubs (see list below). Anything else that is missing will not likely affect your tax calculations or tax due/refund.

 

Go to How do I file a substitute W-2 using Form 4852? for instructions on completing the form and filing.

 

Key information for Form 4852:

  • gross wages paid,
  • social security and Medicare wages paid (if different than gross wages),
  • federal income tax withheld, 
  • social security tax withheld
  • Medicare tax withheld
  • state wages
  • state tax withheld
  • local wages (if any)
  • local tax withheld (if any)

Why don't you have a W2 for it?  Ask the employer for another copy.  Did they take out any taxes or withholding or deductions?
