When Will I get My W-2?

We don’t think about it until this time of year.  The W-2.  It is the record of our earnings for the previous year.  When does your employer have to put this document in your possession?  Remember, each and every company for whom you worked in 2017 must provide one to EVERY working person in your household.

Remember this, even if you do not receive your W-2 form before the tax filing season ends, you still must file your taxes or request a six-month extension by the tax-filing deadline.  If you’ve contacted both your employer as well as the IRS and you are NOT filing for an extension, fill out Form 4852, the substitute for the W-2.

Yes, ‘tis the season to prepare.  Maybe not our favorite time coming off the holidays, but absolutely necessary!  Michael Mathews Las Vegas CPA is ready when you have all of your paperwork together.  Make an early appointment at his Northwest office located at 2620 Regatta Dr. Suite 102 by calling (702) 240-5237.
