My previous employer did not mail me my W2 but today she did give me her tax ID number. Is there anyway I can file with just this?

Maybe.  If you have the last paystub of the year with all of the information you can find on the W2, then you can file a return with a substitute W2 since your employer has given you the EIN.

Not  really -- get the W-2 -- it is the safer route
