The 2024 W-2 forms (Wage and Tax Statements) are available for all active Universities of Wisconsin employees on the MyUW portal.
Paper copies will be postmarked by January 31, 2025, and sent via U.S. mail to employees who did not consent to electronic only W-2 Form distribution.
Resources
View/print your W-2 form and find tax resources on the Tax Statements tab on the Payroll Help page.
Availability of Other Tax Forms
Some employees will receive additional tax forms from the Universities of Wisconsin. These additional forms are not applicable to all employees. Examples include Form 1095-C, the Fellowship Letter, and Form 1042-S. For information on these forms, visit the Tax Statements tab on the Payroll Help page.
Filing Taxes
Employees should use their W-2 form, not their final 2024 earnings statement, to file taxes.
The Internal Revenue Service will begin accepting and processing 2024 tax year returns near the end of January 2025. Employees may want to file their return as soon as all tax forms are received to minimize the chance of a fraudulent return being processed using their Social Security number, or Individual Taxpayer Identification number. More information is available on the IRS website.
If you have questions, contact your Payroll Office.
