How do I acquire my 2017 W2’s? Trying to buy a home

I NEED A COPY OF MY W-2  (or 1099)

TurboTax does not have a copy of your W-2—the Wage & Tax Statement—issued to you by your employer, (nor does TurboTax have copies of your 1099’s).   You should always save those documents for your own records. You could ask the employer(s) for copies or you can get a copy from Social Security (for a fee of $86).

If you saved a pdf of your completed tax return, the worksheets will show the W-2 information you entered, but not the actual W-2.

You can get a wage and income transcript from the IRS:  It will not show the actual W-2, 1099’s, etc, but will show the income information the IRS received.  It will not, however, show your state information. It will only show the federal information.

They would be in your own personal records. If you have lost them, you could try to contact your employer at the time for copies. Some employers also send W-2 electronically via a company link.  

You can possibly get a copy from the IRS but an actual copy of your Form W-2 is only available if you submitted it with a paper tax return. You can also try the Social Security Administration.   

You can get a wage and income transcript, containing the Federal tax information your employer reported to the Social Security Administration (SSA), by visiting our Get Transcript page. Refer to Transcript Types and Ways to Order Them.
