Will my Social Security Number or Individual Tax Payor Identification Number be displayed on these forms?
No. In order to increase the security of sensitive information, any identification number issued by the U.S. Federal Government has been removed. Therefore, if you use a printout of this form and submit it for tax filing purposes, you must write your number in the field provided on either the W-2 or 1042-S.
