TurboTax does not have a copy of your W-2—the Wage & Tax Statement—issued to you by your employer, (nor does TurboTax have copies of your 1099’s).   You should always save those documents for your own records. You could ask the employer(s) for copies or you can get a copy from Social Security (for a fee of $86).

You can get a wage and income transcript from the IRS:  It will not show the actual W-2, 1099’s, etc, but will show the information the IRS received.
