After you file

TurboTax does not have your W-2. 

To import your W-2 directly from your employer into TurboTax, the following things are required:

  • Your payroll provider needs to be a TurboTax Import Partner.
  • Your W-2 must be available for import 
  • We need the Box 1 amount from your W-2 or the year-to-date (YTD) gross income from your year-end pay stub.
  • In some cases, we may need the Box d Control Number from your W-2, but only if your payroll provider requires it.

If you can't get a copy of your w-2:

  1. Get your last pay stub and call the IRS at 800-829-1040.
  2. The IRS will ask you for some info before following up with your employer.
  3. After notifying the IRS, you can use the Form 4852 in the event that your employer doesn't provide you with the W-2 in time to file your tax return.
