Critical notice: This document is a personal-record copy only — not a substitute for the W-2 your employer is legally required to provide, and absolutely not for filing with the IRS. Filing a self-generated W-2 is fraudulent. Use this for personal recordkeeping and income documentation purposes only.

Common questions? Check.

Is this the same as the W-2 my employer sends me?
No — and this distinction matters. Your employer is legally required to send you a W-2 (Copy B) by January 31 each year. This document is a professional-format Copy C (employee's record copy) you generate yourself for personal recordkeeping. It is not a substitute for your employer-issued W-2, and it is not for filing with the IRS.
Can I use this if my employer hasn't sent my W-2 yet?
This document is for personal records only. If you need your official W-2 for tax filing, contact your employer or the IRS. Do not use this document as a substitute.
Why would I generate my own W-2 record?
Common uses: employees who want a formatted record of their wages and withholding before receiving their official W-2; people who need to show income documentation to a landlord or lender; personal recordkeeping of your wage and tax history.
What information goes on a W-2?
Employer info (name, address, EIN), employee info (name, SSN, address), wages and tips, federal income tax withheld, Social Security wages and tax, Medicare wages and tax, and state wages and withholding. You enter all of this — we format it to the standard W-2 layout.
Is this for filing with the IRS?
Absolutely not. This is a personal-record document only. Filing a self-generated W-2 with the IRS would be fraudulent. Use the W-2 issued by your actual employer for tax filing.
Can I edit my document before paying?
Yes — as many times as you need. The preview updates in real time so you always see exactly what your final document will look like before spending anything.
What payment methods are accepted?
All major credit and debit cards through secure Stripe checkout — Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover. Apple Pay and Google Pay also supported where available.
How do I receive my document?
Immediately after payment your clean, watermark-free PDF downloads on the confirmation page. We email a backup copy within minutes.
