You can access your W2 or other documents within Turbo Tax only if you have uploaded and saved them into Documents in your Turbo Tax account.

I NEED A COPY OF MY W-2  (or 1099)

TurboTax does not have a copy of your W-2—the Wage & Tax Statement—issued to you by your employer, (nor does TurboTax have copies of your 1099’s).   You should always save those documents for your own records. You could ask the employer(s) for copies or you can get a copy from Social Security (for a fee of $90).

If you saved a pdf of your completed tax return, the worksheets will show the W-2 information you entered, but not the actual 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.

Or you can pay the IRS $43 for an actual copy of your tax return which will include copies of your W-2’s

As stated above by @xmasbaby, you can get a copy of a W-2 from Social Security by visiting the link How can I get a copy of my wage and tax statements (Form W-2)? 

 

TurboTax does not have a copy of your tax forms.
