How do I use my IRS Transcript to fill out my taxes?

I have my IRS Transcript and not my W-2's. How do I use the transcript to fill in the information.

If you don't have the full business name or the employer's EIN then in the TT program you can use any fake 9 digit number  when required but you will need to print, ink sign and mail in the return and attach a copy of the transcript to the paper copy of the return.

If you live or work in a state that has state income tax, the IRS Wage and Income Transcript does not have the state and local information from your W-2. You should contact your employers and ask for duplicate copies of your W-2s. If you can't get them from the employers you can get a complete copy of your W-2s from the Social Security Administration, but there is a fee of $126. See the following link.


How can I get a copy of my wage and tax statements (Form W-2)?
