If you cannot get a W-2 from your employer, you can file Form 4852 Substitute for Form W-2, Wage and Tax Statement. TaxAct does not provide Form 4852, so you'll need to print a hard copy of your return, attach Form 4852, and mail it to the IRS.

To submit a substitute for Form W-2:

1. Download and print Form 4852 from the IRS Website.
2. Manually complete Form 4852.
3. Enter the information from Form 4852 into TaxAct as if you had a Form W-2.
   • Read our article Entering in Program – Form W-2 for more information.
4. Print and mail your return.
   • Read our article How to Mail a Paper Return (Paper File) for more information.
