Taxpayer has not received W-2
It may have been returned because of an incorrect or incomplete address, so the taxpayer should be sure to verify the correct address when contacting the employer. The taxpayer should then allow the employer a reasonable amount of time to re-mail or issue Form W-2.
If the W-2 is still not received by February 15th, the taxpayer can contact the IRS for assistance. The toll-free number is (800) 829-1040. When the taxpayer calls, he or she should have the following information with them:
The employer's name and complete address, Employer Identification Number (if known) and telephone number.
Taxpayer's name, address, Social Security Number, and telephone number.
An estimate of the wages you earned, the Federal income tax withheld, and the dates you began and ended employment.
If the taxpayer misplaced the W-2, the employer should be contacted to replace the lost form with a reissued W-2. The employer is allowed to charge a fee for replacing a lost W-2.
If the taxpayer is unable to receive a W-2 by the tax filing deadline, you may use Form 4852. Using this form will delay any refund due because the IRS may verify any information submitted with this form. Follow all instructions on this form. Form 4852 should only be used as a last resort.
