We can't guarantee your taxes will be accurate if you try to file without the W-2. There is important information on your W-2 that may not be on your last paystub. Have you tried to import that W-2? If not and you have your employer's EIN, you can go here How do I import or enter my W-2? for steps to try that.
Otherwise, the IRS recommends that you take these steps if it's after February 14th and you still have not received a W-2:
- Get your last 2017 paystub and call the IRS at 1-800-829-1040
- The IRS will ask you for some info before following up with your employer
- After notifying the IRS, you can either continue waiting for your W-2, or paper-file your return using Form 4852 and your last paystub. Click here for the Instructions
