Possibly, Turbo Tax does not have a copy of your W-2, but your employer may provide it.

You can get your Social Security statement at my Social Security account

 

If the W-2 is not available, here are the steps to take to get your W-2.

 

  1. You can try to import it on TurboTax.  (See the process below).
  2. Contact your employer  Contact your employer to see if the W-2 has ben sent, and request a duplicate.
  3. Go online, many employers have an online service to provide document like W-2's.
  4. Contact the IRS:  If you could not get it from your employer you can contact the IRS.
    1. You can call toll-free at 1-800-829-1040 or contact a Taxpayer Assistance Center Local IRS Office.
    2. You can request a transcript
    3. You must provide your

No, you cannot import past year tax documents.  You will need to obtain them from the original sources and key them in by hand.

 

 W-2’s come from employers.

 

You might need to phone, drop in, email and/or snail mail an old employer to make sure they know where to send 2023 your W-2's

ALL of your 2023 W-2’s must be entered on the SAME  2023 tax return.  

 

Go to Federal>Wages & Income to enter a W-2.

After you enter the first one, you click Add Another W-2.
