Places that advertise that you can file with paystubs are actually offering a loan on the estimated refund based on the paystub. You're not actually filing your return without the w-2. They withold the prepaid interest fees and you would then have to come back and file your actual return once you have your w-2. Since w-2's must be out by the end of the month, i would just wait and actually file my return.

You should just really wait to get your w2 before you file your taxes. If you do it with the advance loan that some companies offer, you'll actually end up paying a lot more than you would have if you would have just waited to get your w2 in the mail. I went to www.expresstaxrefund.com and filed my taxes on there. My friend used their last paystub, but they needed to contact their job to get the EIN to fill out the w2 online.

I think you are referring to services such as HR Block or Jackson Hewitt that are advertising that you can do your taxes without waiting for your W-2. I suggest you call them and ask them a simple question. "If everything else is the same, what is the difference in cost to me for filing with a W-2 and filing with my last pay stub?"
