My wife changed her name to match mine however her W2 has her old name. Should we file using her current name or the one on her W2?

Use the last name that's on her social security card. The name that you enter on your tax return must match the name on your Social Security card. Review the IRS FAQ Name changes & Social Security number matching issues for more information.
