Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Importing a W-2 only works for the current tax year, which is now 2020. The best way to get your 2019 W-2 is to contact the employer and ask for a duplicate copy.


If you are unable to get the W-2 from your employer, you can get a copy of your W-2 from the Social Security Administration. There is a fee of $90 for each year. See the following link.


How can I get a copy of my wage and tax statements (Form W-2)?


A 2019 Wage and Income Transcript from the IRS will list the information from your W-2, but it is not in the format of an actual W-2 form, and it does not include the state and local information (boxes 15 - 20). Go to the following link on the IRS web site to get a transcript. You want a Wage and Income Transcript, not a Tax Return Transcript.
