Can employee report to IRS about the employer? Is it a law that employer must give W2 to all of its employee irrespective of current employee or ex employee?

They must be in the mail by January 31st. They don't have to give it directly to you but they must mail it out by Jan 31.
You should wait at least a week for delivery. If you haven't received it by Feb 14th, contact the employer. If they balk, you can contact the IRS who will investigate the matter.

The employer has until January 31st to provide you with your W2. And yes ALL employees should receive w2's regardless of current employment status.

Employers must give employees (ex and current) their W2's by January 31st.

It is the federal law that they give a W-2 or 1099 postmarked by the post office no later than Jan. 31. The laws are different if you made less than $600 I think but I'm not positive on that number.

It is the law that any company you worked for during the last year must provide you with a W2 by Feb 1st.

That's true but they have a time limit to do this. It's some time in Feb. They don't have to give you the W-2 until then.

If I'm not mistaken you're supposed to receive your W2 from your employer by January 15 (allow for holidays and weekends) and if you don't receive one then contact your employer (phone or letter) and request that. If people don't get theirs it's usually because somehow it got lost in the mail, got sent to the wrong address, or the person changed their address. yes, anyone who worked for them during they year they will send a W2 to.

see the IRS, as I recall they have a form called substitute for W-2.
