Missing W-2

My company closed last year, filing for Chapter 7.  I did not receive a W-2 from them for last year's income.  Can I use Turbo tax to file my 2019 return and can I simply use the gross income from my last pay stub, in lieu of an actual W-2?  Or do I have to seek a W-2 from the IRS?

Missing W-2

You can file your return using Form 4852 and a substitute W-2.  However, you will not be able to file your return electronically, it will have to be mailed for processing.  

 

See the following TurboTax article for instructions:  How do I file a substitute W-2 using Form 4852?
