I am confused ... if you can get it for free what is the charge ?
If you did not get the W-2 form last year by mid Feb then you should have taken action at that time. You still can and you can file without the W-2 form by using the information on the last paycheck stub and filling in form 4852. If you didn't keep your paycheck stubs until you got the W-2 then that is your error.
