Is there somewhere I can get my w2's online? Or any other way to get them? My previous employer will not respond to my emails or calls about them, the last response I got was @ a month ago & "they were going out tomorrow".
Is there anything I can do?

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.

Can't get them online unless the employer posted them there and I doubt it. Contact www.irs.gov; there is a number to call that will help you put pressure on them.
I didn't get my W-2 by January 31, so I asked my employer for it, but I still don't have it. What should I do?
If you don't receive your Form W-2 (PDF) by February 15, contact the IRS for assistance at (800) 829-1040. Also, you may want to refer to Tax Topic 154, Form W-2 - What To Do if Not Received, to see the specific information the IRS will need in order to prepare a Form 4598, Form W-2, 1098 or 1099 Nor Received, Incorrect, or Lost. You will be sent a copy of Form 4598 along with a Form 4852, Substitute for Form W-2, Wage and Tax Statement, or Form 1099R, Distributions from Pensions, Annuities, Retirement or Profit Sharing Plans, IRAs, Insurance Contract, etc.

That doesn't sound like a reasonable request on their part, and I highly doubt you're legally required to provide them with such information. Your personal tax information has nothing to do with your current position at this company. Have you asked any of your co-workers what they think about this request? Perhaps it is standard of this company, or perhaps there are others who are questioning it just as much as you are. Support from your co-workers could be beneficial in this case.

Call the IRS, and they'll probably be able to work it out for you, if your employer sent your W-2 info to them.
Some companies make W-2's available online, some don't. And to find out how to get to them, you'd have to get the info from the employer.

Is it possible for you to physically go to your employer? I would definitely file a complaint with the IRS....that usually gets 'em moving!

If you have your last check stub, you can create a substitute w-2, but it may not be quite accurate.
good luck & bless

Call them again and tell them you are coming to pick it up and to have it ready. Or if you don't want to go down there, call them and tell whoever you talk to that they are being reported to the IRS for keeping your W-2s past the deadline. If I were you I would call them every single day, just to annoy them. And let them know, "I will be calling everyday until I receive the information I have requested repeatedly." Trust me, after about a week's worth of phone calls, they will mail you your W-2, just to get you to stop. But I would definately call them and tell them you are calling IRS...and then call IRS and report them. I don't know, I can be a b*tch, though, but I would drive my happy @$$ down there daily and give them sh*t in person.
