An article at internettaxconnection.com now reveals two websites where taxpayers can obtain their W-2 forms. The author explains that while companies typically mail out the forms to their staff by January 31st, they can be accessed online. Many employers don’t state this. For going online to get the form, author and tax expert Frank Ellis reveals TurboTax and H&R Block offer W-2 search and import functions in addition to their web-based tax preparation tools.

Important details include the Employee Identification Number of the company one works for. Personal details and gross pay, from a previous paycheck, are as well. The author explains that once the personal details are found, it’s possible to download and print a W-2 form and include it with income tax return forms, while taxpayers can print out numerous copies if necessary. He also explains that paper copies don’t come in the mail if the W-2 is accessed online

The nature of the form and what’s included on it is discussed in the article. In addition to wages and taxes paid, the record includes what was paid as part of the prior year’s employment. The primary information is financial data. The IRS needs financial information to complete tax paper work for calculating what’s to be paid by each individual to federal and state governments, the author explains.

Ellis also says most businesses provide W-2 forms online , including military services. Outsourcing firms make this possible and automate the process while companies should let their employees know if they’re working with a payroll or W-2 delivery firm. The perk of not having to wait for a paper form in the mail is highlighted. Also, the author notes the reduction of paper waste and how people can submit income taxes sooner.
