Get your taxes done using TurboTax

I would not expect to get a W-2 through an Email (not secure), but if you didn't get one through the mail it is worth going through these steps.

What To Do If You Haven't Received a W-2

• Step 1: Check online.  Many employers now issue Form W-2 electronically to employees. But that doesn't mean they'll always email the form to you, as it isn't particularly secure. Instead, they'll email you a link to an online portal where you can download the form yourself.
• Step 2: Ask your employer.  If your online search leaves you empty-handed, contact your employer's payroll or human resources department to ask when and how they issued your W-2. If they mailed it to an old or incorrect address, the post office may have returned it to the employer.
• Step 3: Contact the IRS.  What happens if your employer truly never issued your W-2? Perhaps they went out of business or aren’t responding to your request for a W-2? In that case, it's time to try contacting the IRS. Find a local IRS office 

Be ready to provide the following information:

• Your name, address, Social Security number, and phone number
• The employer's name, address, phone number and Tax ID if you have it
• The dates you worked for the employer
• An estimate of your wages and federal income tax withheld (you can usually find this information on your last pay stub for the tax year)
