I spoke with a SSA person who walked me through the process. You fill out an IRS Form 4506, in the tax form field enter W-2, and then enter the years for which you want the W-2s, and instead of $39 per copy, line through that or white it out and enter $30 per year. Make a check out to SSA in the amount $30 per year.

Here is a link to the SSA instructions:

ttp://ssa-custhelp.ssa.gov/cgi-bin/ssa.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=301&p_created=959280689&p_sid=yNqEh9gj&p_accessibility=0&p_redirect=&p_lva=&p_sp=cF9zcmNoPTEmcF9zb3J0X2J5PSZwX2dyaWRzb3J0PSZwX3Jvd19jbnQ9MjgsMjgmcF9wcm9kcz0mcF9jYXRzPSZwX3B2PSZwX2N2PTEuOSZwX3BhZ2U9MQ**&p_li=&p_topview=1

The first set I received had all kinds of data except the State Wages or taxes withheld. I am going to speak to SSA on Tuesday to see what else I can do to get this data.

From my understanding, if the W-2 is a physical piece of paper you can get a photocopy, but W-3 electronic submissions don't seem to provide the State Info.

Does anyone out there have any other mechanism for retrieving W-2 photocopies?

THanks,

How do I request copies of W-2s from previous years?

Question

How do I request copies of a Form W-2 from previous years?

Answer

It depends on the reason you need them. We provide free copies if you need them for a Social Security-related reason, but there is a fee if you need them for reason not related to Social Security. If you need a W-2 copy because you have a question about earnings posted to your Social Security record, for example, we will provide free copies. But if you need them for Federal tax purposes, we will charge $30 for each year. Meanwhile, IRS will provide the same W-2s free if you request them for a tax-related purpose.

Request copies of your W-2s from Social Security using Request for Copy or Transcript of Tax Form (IRS Form 4506) and send it to:

Social Security Administration
Office of Central Operations,
Division of Earnings Records Operations
P.O. Box 33003
Baltimore, MD 21290-3003

Include the following:

Your Social Security number;

The exact name shown on your Social Security card;

Any different names shown on your W-2;

Your complete mailing address;

The year(s) for which you need copies;

Your daytime telephone number; and

The reason for your request.
