If I don't have my w2 yet but enter my employer's FED IN number can I file my taxes or do I have to wait for my w2? I filed with turbotax last year.

You need to wait for your W-2. There is no rush because the IRS will not begin to process returns until at least Jan 23. There is absolutely no advantage to filing before that date.

You have to wait for the W-2.  Your  EIN is not enough to enter your income to your tax return.
