I’ve been working at a particular fast food restaurant since June and they use PayChex for all things payroll and tax related. My boss initially told me that she would put my info into the system and that I could sign up if someone at hq sends me an invitation email. A month went by and I never got any invitation email (I keep my email app pretty organized so I know I didn’t scroll past it) I told my boss about this and she said she would talk with the hq tech lady again. Fast forward to now, I’ve asked my boss a total of 3 times to talk to the tech person and STILL haven’t gotten my invitation email. What I’m worried about is that I won’t have my W2 in time for tax season. And before anyone brings it up, the restaurant does not print out W2’s anymore because some past employee did something.
How do I get my W2 if my employers keep forgetting about it?

Have her copy you in an email to the tech person
Do you mean a paystub? You wouldn’t get a W-2 until January. How are you being paid? Are taxes being taken out?
For the past few years, the IRS has done a good job of making W-2s available pretty quickly through your account on the IRS website. I can’t promise that will continue this year, but there’s a decent chance of it. In that case, you may have to wait till late February or March, but you should still be able to get it through your IRS web account to file before the deadline.
