MyWings Employee Self-Service Instructions Electronic Form W-2 Tax Statement

As required by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), the University of North Florida must provide all employees a Form W-2 Wage and Tax Statement each calendar year to be used by the employee in completing their annual Form 1040, 1040A or 1040EZ US Individual Income Tax Return. The Form W-2 Tax Statement details the employee's wages, tax withholding and other important payroll information for the calendar year. In previous years, employees received paper copies of their Form W-2 Wage and Tax Statements.
