How can I find my companies EIN without a W2

You'll need to contact your employer to find out its EIN, but if you're thinking of filing without your Form W-2, you really shouldn't.  I've included links for a couple of articles below for your consideration.

Since it's the middle of February, you should've received your Form W-2 by now.  Employers have until January 31 to mail out W-2s. 

Please see the TurboTax Help articles below for more information that might be of use.

If you do not have a copy of your W-2, you will need to ask your employer for their EIN number.

@farrah76801 Contact your employer. If they can't help you, a co-worker with a W-2 may be able to give you the EIN number.

 

You can also call the IRS at 1-800-829-1040. The IRS will contact your employer or payer and request the missing form. The IRS will also send you a Form 4852. If you don’t receive the missing form in sufficient time to file your income tax return timely, you may use the Form 4852 that the IRS sent you to file with your return.

 

You can fill out Form 4852 and file by mail without an EIN number. See How do I file a substitute W-2 using Form 4852? The IRS says, "If you don’t know the EIN, but you know a different TIN associated with the employer or payer, such as a social security number (SSN), you may enter that TIN."

I really need the EINs for Paramount Kia of Asheville and Target in Asheville NC

How can I find my companies EIN without a W2

@jennconn Contact those employers to get the EIN.   TurboTax cannot obtain EIN's for you.

 

Every 2020 W-2 that you received must be reported on your 2020 tax return, even if they are for small amounts.  Remember that each one of those W-2’s has your Social Security number on it, and that income was reported to the IRS by the employer.  You do not want to get in trouble with the IRS for under-reporting your income.

ALL of your W-2’s must be entered on the SAME tax return.  

 

Go to Federal>Wages & Income to enter a W-2.

After you enter the first one, you click Add Another W-2.

 

 

W-2's come from your employer, and they have until February 1 to issue it.  Some employers allow you to import the W-2 through the software, but for security reasons you still need information from the actual W-2 to import it.  You might need to phone, drop in, email and/or snail mail an old employer to make sure they know where to send your W-2.

And….SAVE YOUR OWN W-2!  TURBOTAX DOES NOT SAVE IT FOR YOU.  TurboTax will not have a copy of it in your account and will not have an image even if you snapped a photo.  It is up to you to save it for your own records as stated on the back of the W-2.

 

 

Other ways to get W-2’s:

 

Pay Social Security $90 per W-2:
