How can I get a copy of a W-2 form from a previous year?
“The quickest way to obtain a copy of a prior year Form W-2 is through your employer. If that is not possible, you can order and pay for copies of your entire return (attachments include Form W-2) from IRS, >>>or order W-2 information at no charge<<< from IRS. IRS can provide W-2 information for the current and past 9 years. Complete and mail Form 4506, Request for Copy of Tax Return and Form 4506-T Request for Transcript of Tax Return. You should allow 60 calendar days for a response." ---from the IRS website http://www.irs.gov/faqs/faq-kw157.
