I would like to use my w2 form from last year to complete this year. I accidentally pressed that I did not work at my job because I wasn’t familiar with the tax name.

If you are referring to a 2019 W-2, then just enter the W-2 in the Wages and Income section.

Enter w-2 in the Search box located in the upper right of the program screen. Click on Jump to w-2

If you are referring to a 2018 W-2, that cannot be entered on a 2019 tax return. It must be entered on a 2018 tax return.

And if you're talking about using your 2018 W-2 as an approximation your 2019 income, to "get a jump" on 2019 filing, you cannot do that either.

The IRS will not be accepting e-filed return until Jan. 27, and will not be paying refunds claiming EIC or Additional Child Tax Credit until Feb. 15; so there's no to try short cuts.

Can I use my last pay stub if I don't have my W-2 yet?

We can't guarantee your taxes will be accurate if you try to file without your W-2. There's important info on your W-2 that may not be on your final pay stub. And the IRS is comparing your W-2 entries with what your employer sends in and if they do not match exactly this will cause a delay in your return processing so there is NO advantage to filing before you get the actual W-2 form in hand.

Your employer is required to send W-2s by January 31. If you haven't received your W-2 by February 14, we have some suggestions.

If it's still early, we applaud you for thinking about your taxes this early! You can use TurboTax to get a head start with the info you already know and get an estimate of your refund.
