Your W-2 can only be issued by your employer.  You have to contact them.

Your best bet is to ask your employer or payroll department for another copy of your W-2.

Although you may have previously filed with us, we didn't save a copy of your W-2. And if you used our mobile app to snap a picture of your W-2, it also hasn't been saved on your device.

How can I get a copy of my current or past W-2 online without contacting my employer?

Here are some options:

Order a copy from the Social Security Administration. It's free if you need it for Social Security-related reasons, otherwise, it's $62 per request.

Order a full copy of your return from the IRS for $30, which will also include your W-2.

Wage and income transcripts are available from the IRS free of charge. They're not exact copies, but they contain everything on your W-2, except the state and local information.
