Is there a way to find out if your employer ever paid you for overtime on your w-2 form??

Employer never provides paystubs with checks and it is a hassle to get them when requested. If you are paid overtime hours as an hourly employee would it show up on your w-2?

No, you cannot calculate overtime from the W-2.

The 2024 W-2 does not separate overtime.
If you still have the pay stubs you may be able to calculate it.

Well sure. You have more income and the more income you have you pay a higher percent of tax.
