I need a copy of 2022 w2 form for employment verification

TurboTax Online

Yes, if you scanned and stored your W-2 forms in the Documents section of TurboTax, you can retrieve them. Note, this isn't an option included in the Free Edition of TurboTax.

To check for your 2022 documents:

Sign in to the account you used in 2022.
Select Documents on the left.
Change the dropdown to View documents from: 2022.
If you stored documents here, they will show on the list.

If you don't see any stored documents, and you didn't keep copies for your records, you will need to contact the IRS to get copies of your prior year documents. Follow this link for more.

I NEED A COPY OF MY W-2 (or 1099)

W-2's come from employers. There is not a federal or national website that provides W-2’s.

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 $126).

To get a copy of a W-2 from Social Security https://faq.ssa.gov/en-us/Topic/article/KA-02501

If you saved a pdf of your completed tax return, the worksheets will show the W-2 information you entered, but not the actual W-2.

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 income information the IRS received. It will not, however, show your state information. It will only show the federal information.

Or you can pay the IRS $43 for an actual copy of your tax return which will include copies of your W-2’s
