Where do I find the control number, box "d" on my W-2?

Your employer may not use a control number (box d) -- it is totally optional.  An employer sometimes uses the control number to identify individual W-2 forms. The IRS does NOT require an employer to enter this, so it may be blank.

A Control Number (box D) is used by many payroll departments to uniquely identify a W-2 in their system.

 

If your W-2 doesn't have one, box D can be left blank.
