If you still do not receive your W-2 by February 14th, contact the IRS for assistance at 800-829-1040. When you call, have the following information:
Employer's name, address, city, and state, including zip code.
Your name, address, city and state, including zip code, and Social Security number
If you misplaced your W-2, contact your employer. Your employer can replace the lost form with a “reissued statement.” Be aware that your employer is allowed to charge you a fee for providing you with a new W-2.
You still must file your tax return on time even if you do not receive your Form W-2. If you do not receive the missing information in time to file, you may file you may use Form 4852, Substitute for Form W-2, Wage and Tax Statement. Attach Form 4852 to the return, estimating income and withholding taxes as accurately as possible. There may be a delay in any refund due while the information is verified.
If you receive a Form W-2 or W-2C (corrected form) after you have filed your return using Form 4852, and the information differs from what you reported on your return, you must amend your return by filing a Form 1040X, Amended U.S. Individual Income Tax Return.

Some business file W2s electronically, and if you know your employer's taxpayer ID you might be able to retrieve the W2 through turbotax. This works with the purchased program, or the free turbotax.com online version.

Some employers make them available on-line. You'll need to ask them if they offer the service, and how to access it if they do. Otherwise, they have to send it to you.
