Company was dissolved. Earnings were above the minimum. We checked IRS website and the W2 was not on our Wages and Income report.

"If IRS intervention still doesn't produce the form, you need and you want to file by the tax deadline, fill out Form 4852.

Form 4852 is a substitute for Form W-2 that taxpayers can complete if:

they haven't received a W-2
their employer issued an incorrect W-2

The IRS doesn't allow Form 4852 to be filed electronically, so you'll need to paper file your tax return by printing out the necessary forms and mailing them to the IRS."
