Employers are required to deliver or mail/(postmark) employee copies of W2s by February 2, 2009. You can request an extension.
Employer's "red ink" Copy A, must be mailed to the Social Security Administration by March 2, 2009. If you file online at the SSA web site, you will have until March 31, 2009.
There are penalties for filing late.
If the employer doesn't provide a W2 to employees (perhaps they are no longer in business), an employee can file their own W2 with the SSA to make sure they get credit for Soc. Sec. Benefits when they retire.

What should you do if you don't receive a w2 by the deadline?
If you don't receive a W2 by the deadline, you need to contact your employer and get another copy of the form in question. There can be several reasons that you didn't receive it such as moving and not giving them your new address, perhaps they had the incorrect address to start with. The employer is required to mail you a form but even if they don't it does not relieve you from reporting all income on your tax return.You will first need to contact the employer to get another copy. If they are no longer in business and can't be found you can call the IRS and see what can be done beyond that if they don't have the information.
