I stopped working at the end of February this year, and got married in October. Do I need to change my name on my W2 before taxes or do I just leave it alone?

Cant access site where I know my W2 will be available for me to download. But because I know longer work for this company its not letting me access my account.

Be sure your former employer has your current address.

The name you enter on your tax return and the name that is on the W-2 do not have to match, only the Social Security numbers.  If you changed your name after getting married make sure that you inform the Social Security Administration and get a new Social Security card.
