Get your taxes done using TurboTax

The format of the ID number you are looking for is  XX-XXXXXXX.  If there is not a number with this format on your W-2 contact your employer and notify them that you do not have their tax ID number on your W-2.  Not having taxes withheld will not be a problem with the IRS when you file your return.  By not having taxes withheld you may incur an underpayment penalty depending on your tax liability.
