I recently moved in the US. I started working January 2006. I went to a dealership to buy a car, they said I got approved I just need to show them my W-2 form; do i have that? or do i have to wait exactly for a year to get one?

You shouldn't need a W-2 to get a car. All you need is proof that you have been working for at least 6 months and that you are currently employed. (Pay stubs should be fine.) The car dealership just wants to make sure that you are good for the car loan.
If they don't accept your pay stubs (which they should), then ask them if they would accept a letter from your boss stating that you are employed and that you are paid a salary of salary -- with a phone number.

Show them a pay stub that shows year to date earnings since you don't have a W-2 for a prior year. Absent that a letter from your employer stating that you are employed and earning x$'s per year should work also.

You won't get a w-2 until the end of the year...actually the end of January, 2007. Get a letter from your employer stating when you started, your job position and your salary on company letterhead. that should satisfy them.

Go to another car dealer. By showing your pay check stub you should be able to get financed.
