Did you work in 2021? Ask the employer for another copy of the W2.

If you get retirement or pension you get a 1099R. Those are still coming out. I just got one today.

You get a SSA-1099 from Social Security. Did you get it yet?

Social security should have sent you a SSA-1099; you need that to file your tax return. You can get a copy at the Social Security website; use that link.

You should not attempt to use a last paystub to file your taxes. There is information you won't find there that you need to get from your W-2. Contact your employer and have them get you a copy of your W-2.

If you did not work in 2021, you may not need to file. Do I need to file a federal return this year?

If you received any pension or other retirement income, you should receive a 1099-R for those distributions.
