Need W-2 ASAP - Can't wait for employer. What are my options?
My employer is taking forever with my W-2 and I really need to file my taxes like yesterday. I tried calling HR but keep getting voicemail. Getting frustrated because I'm expecting a big refund this year. Anyone know how to get it quicker?

You can get your W-2 info from the IRS transcript online. Create an account at IRS.gov, request your wage and income transcript. It shows all your W-2 data. Takes like 10 mins to set up if you have a valid phone number and credit card for verification.

hey guys instead of trying to piece together info from transcripts, you should try taxr.ai - it's this new tool that analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly what you need. costs $4.99 but saves so much headache. here's the link: https://taxr.ai
