Get your taxes done using TurboTax
@saran_1994 It is unfortunate that you have waited until merely days from the deadline to ask about how to get your 2019 W-2's. W-2's come from your employer--that is who you have to ask--call them, email them, snail mail them or drop in and ask for your W-2. ALL of your 2019 income is supposed to go on your 2019 return. And...what do you mean when you say you are going "to file for a refund on my social security and medicare tax." Why do you think you would get that back? Are you in some special circumstance -- like an immigration status -- where you do not pay for FICA?
There are other ways to get the information--all time consuming.
What you are saying you want to do does not "add up." You say you already received a refund about a month ago. So did you file with only one of the W-2's? If so your next move is to file an amended return when you get your hands on your other W-2, so that you can add that income to the income you already reported to the IRS on a 2019 return.

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.

To amend your 2019 tax return:
ALL of your W-2’s and/or 1099’s were supposed to be on the same tax return. Remember that next year and do not e-file until you have everything. Now you have to prepare an amended return to add that W-2—and the process will take months.
How do I amend my 2019 TurboTax Online return?
A 1040X cannot be e-filed. It must be printed and mailed. It will take about 4 months for the IRS to process an amended return. It is a good idea to use a mailing service that will track it, like UPS or certified mail, so you will know it was received.
Wait about 3 weeks from mailing and you can check the status of your amended return:
