Now is the time to “Consent to Online” … Your 2010 Form W-2 You have not yet consented to receiving your Form W-2 online so you will be receiving a printed form - but there’s still time! While you’re here, why not go ahead & consent? By consenting to an online W-2 in Employee Self Service (ESS) & forgoing a paper one, you’ll be saving yourself time & protecting your identity. It’s likely (70%, per IRS) you’ll file your tax return electronically, so apply that same logic to get your W-2 electronically. It’s easy. Go to the W-2/W-2C consent form page in ESS through the menu or this link. [ Link] Check the box “I agree to NOT receive a paper W-2 (or W-2C) form from University Payroll.” Confirm your identity by entering the last 4 digits of your social security number (SSN). REMEMBER: You are behind firewalls. It’s convenient & quick. Your 2010 form will be posted online by January 10th & we’ll notify you via your preferred e-mail address the day it’s available. Paper W-2s will be sent to departments for distribution on January 25th. Departments must distribute them by January 31st. It’s safe. There is one less printed document with your SSN on it. If you really need a paper copy of your W-2, you have the option of printing it. Deadline for going paperless for 2010 is January 4, 2011. Questions? Call University Payroll at 515-4350.
