How do I get my Form W-2?
Current employees of Weber State University may elect to receive the W2 Wage and Tax Statement electronically. Employees will be able to access the W2 a couple of days earlier, because they will not have to wait for it to be delivered in the mail.
Former employees will have their W2 mailed to the home address on file by Jan. 31.
-
I either didn't receive or lost my W-2 form. What do I do?
If you are a current employee and didn’t receive your W-2 by March 1, contact our office. If you are a former employee, please allow two weeks to receive the W2 via the U.S. Postal Service.
-
My address on the W2 is incorrect, what should I do?
A corrected W2 is not required for a change in address. If you are a current employee and need to change your address, visit the Personal Profile app in your eWeber Portal. If you are a former employee, and no longer have access to the employee portal, please contact our office.
-
My wages on my W2 do not match my final check stub of the year. What is the problem?
The W2 reflects taxable earnings while the check stubs reflect total earnings. To convert from total earnings to taxable earnings, you need to subtract the pretax deductions, including parking decals, FSA contributions (medical and dental premiums, flexible spending account contributions, and dependent care contribution) and retirement deductions (401k, 403(b), 457). These deductions are itemized in boxes 12, 13, and 14 of the W2.
-
What if I didn’t have any federal or state taxes withheld according to my W2?
You would not have had any federal and state withholding taxes if you claimed an exemption from federal / state withholding on your W-4 form for the year (Employee’s Withholding Allowance Certificate). Check out your tax status through the payroll services channel, W-4 withholding notice. Additionally, if your earnings are under a certain threshold, you may not have been subject to federal and state withholding. Please note that you can change your Employee Withholding Allowance Certificate W-4 at any time.
