I need my 2020 W-9. How do I get it?

A W-9 is a form you give to a business for whom you are doing work as an independent contractor.   TurboTax would not have that.   Are you really asking for a copy of your W-2----the Wage and Tax Statement you got from your employer?   When the transition from 2020 to 2021 is complete in the system, you will be able to get the worksheets that are part of the pdf you saved from your tax return.   That may take several weeks.

 

I NEED A COPY OF MY W-2  (or 1099)

 

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 (for a fee of $90).

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.

 

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.

Or you can pay the IRS $43 for an actual copy of your tax return which will include copies of your W-2’s
