I NEED A COPY OF MY W-2
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 $86).
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.
To get a copy of a W-2 from Social Security https://faq.ssa.gov/en-us/Topic/article/KA-02501
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.

For a Form W-2 that you have not yet received from your employer or have otherwise misplaced, I would contact them for a duplicate copy. This is the quickest and easiest way to get this information.
To enter your Form W-2 into TurboTax or check on an entry that you have already entered, you can navigate to this section by taking the steps below:
1.) Federal
2.) Wages and Income
3.) Wages and Salaries
If you have not yet entered your W-2, you will begin the questions to import/enter your W-2.
If you have already entered this information, click through the screens until you see Here's Your W-2 Info. Then, click Edit next to the W-2 entry you wish to review.
If this does not fully resolve your question, please post additional details below.
