I used e-file. Do i mail my W2 and K-1 statement ?

[private_ryan]

I have to sign and mail form 8453-OL since it was not signed eletronically. Do I need to mail the W2 and K-1 like in the old days or the IRS has them on file?


thanx

1. my 2 cents: hang onto them

Last year I e-filed and some months later they asked for a paper copy of the return itself signed by both of us, husband and myself. the W-2s were never asked for.

this year at the end of the whole e-file rigamarole it said something like a signed paper copy would not be necessary because some part of the procedure had been an electronic signature.

i believe the feds do get copies of all that W-2 stuff. in addition, the e-file I submitted included all the details from the W-2s.

5. I'll defintely hold onto them

My W2 form was online too, all I had to do is enter a number and TurboTax got it from ADP. I assume IRS has that capability. K-1 is different, but probably they'll get it from my business filing.

2. good grief

I haven't even received my W2 yet... :scared:

3. uh, tax deadline was this past Thursday.

you were supposed to get the W-2 by Jan 31st at the latest. you need to make a big stink with your employer--and contact the IRS to work something out before they mark you down as delinquent and start adding interest and penalties.

4. I won't be penalized because

my husband was in Iraq until recently so we automatically have an extension. But I am kinda concerned about my W2... I completely forgot that I haven't received it yet. Very peculiar.

6. do an estimate and send the money

you know more or less how much you made so send in the money to void panlites (for the money owed).
