Had you already filed a 2016 tax return?

Can i efile a late 2016 w2?

Never ... the 2016 return must be printed, signed and mailed at this late date.

Can i efile a late 2016 w2?

No, you cannot.  If you already filed a 2016 tax return then the W-2 needs to be added to your tax return by amending your 2016 tax return.  If you did not file a 2016 return, then you can do so by using the 2016 software and preparing a 2016 return which you will print, sign and mail.  It cannot be e-filed. E-filing is permanently closed for 2016 returns.

 If you need to prepare a return for 2014, 2015, or 2016 you can purchase and download desktop software to do it, then print, sign,  and mail the return(s)

When you mail a tax return, you need to attach any documents showing tax withheld, such as your W-2’s or any 1099’s.  Use a mailing service that will track it, such as UPS or certified mail so you will know the IRS received the return.
