Employers are required to send W-2 forms by January 31 each year or the next business day if the date falls on a weekend or holiday. However, you may not need to wait on the mail. H&R Block's free W-2 Early AccessSM service lets an electronic copy be sent to us so you can get an early start on your taxes.
Search for your employer's name, or your company's Federal Employer Identification Number (FEIN) and select it from the generated list.
Once we receive your W-2, it's stored securely until you come to get it. Visit your local H&R Block office to access your W-2 and get your refund as soon as possible. Make sure to bring two forms of ID so we know it's you!
Don't wait for your W-2 to come in the mail.
There is no charge for W-2 Early AccessSM!
Your W-2 is stored safely with H&R Block.
We know that refunds are greatly anticipated but filing for yours depends upon how soon you receive your W-2 from your employer. With H&R Block W-2 Early AccessSM, you can send us an electronic copy of your W-2 for free and get your refund as soon as possible.
It's your refund, so why wait any longer than you have to? You can search for your W-2 in our W-2 finder database of thousands of employers. Once you find it, send it right to H&R Block to begin filing your taxes ASAP.
