I did not receive a w2 from an employer

The company I worked for closed and I have not received a W-2.  Can I use the information on my final pay stub?

  1. Grab your last 2016 paystub and call the IRS at 1-800-829-1040.
  2. The IRS will ask you for some info before following up with your former employer.
  3. After notifying the IRS, you can either continue waiting for your W-2, or paper-file your return using Form 4852 and your last paystub. Instructions
