Your employer should send W-2 forms to you no later than Jan. 31 each year, following the W-2 form deadline for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hrblock.com\/tax-center\/income\/other-income\/income-tax\/\">federal income tax<\/a>. If the deadline falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or legal holiday, it would push the deadline to the next business day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are multiple copies of the W-2 form:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Copy A is sent to the IRS by the employer, and<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Copy B is sent to the employee by the employer.

Technically, your employer has until Jan. 31 to send your W-2 by mail or electronically. If they mailed a paper form on January 31, it may take a few days to arrive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>If your employer participates in the W-2 program, you can use <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hrblock.com\/online-tax-filing\/\"><em>H&amp;R Block Online<\/em><\/a><em> or <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hrblock.com\/tax-software\/\"><em>Tax Software<\/em><\/a><em> to import your W-2 information directly to your return.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For any tax year, if you don\u2019t receive copies of your W-2 by the end of February, contact your employer. If you don\u2019t receive the missing or corrected W-2 form from your employer or payer by the end of February, contact the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hrblock.com\/tax-center\/irs\/forms\/irs-phone-numbers\/\">IRS phone number<\/a>. The IRS will contact your employer to issue the missing W-2 form. The IRS will also send you a Form 4852: <em>Substitute for Form W-2,<\/em> which you can use to complete your tax filing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If it\u2019s late in the tax season and you\u2019re just now realizing you don\u2019t have your W-2, you may want to request an extension to give you more time to complete your return. Filing <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hrblock.com\/tax-center\/irs\/refunds-and-payments\/irs-form-4868\/\">Form 4868<\/a> will give you an extension to file your federal taxes via the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hrblock.com\/tax-center\/irs\/forms\/form-1040\/\">1040 form<\/a>.
