What is the process to obtain W-2 copies from DFAS?

2023-12-21T09:42:49-05:00

Can someone provide the process on how to obtain copies of my W-2s from 2022. I went from ADOS (1 year) into a IMA position which I did drill and attendance. It somehow messed my taxes from 2022. I need to get my 2022 W-2s but DFAS took out the records as of 12 DEC 2023. I went to DFAS and they don't list the proper process. Need if someone can provide the steps on obtaining W-2 copies from DFAS. Thanks.

From what I found researching steps you can do:

To get an old W2 from DFAS, you can:

Call the Military Pay customer care center at [login to see] to request

Visit the DFAS tax statement website to request or view your tax statements2.

Use AskDFAS to request a W-2 reissue. Go to DFAS.mil, click on the AskDFAS link at the bottom of the page, scroll down to select Tax Statement Reissue Requests, then click on the Submit A Ticket button

If you just need the information and not the actual W-2, then you can log into your IRS account* and get the information from there (go to "Get Transcripts Online" -> select "Other" and then "Go" -> and the click on "2022" under "Wage & Income Transcript").

BTW - if anyone is ever looking for information that is reported to the IRS, you'll be able to access it here going back 10 years.

This user is having trouble obtaining their 2022 W-2s from DFAS. They transitioned from active duty (ADOS) to a reserve position (IMA) in the same year, and believe it may be affecting their tax https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/academized-review-2023-actually-good-mary-walton situation. DFAS apparently removed their records as of December 2023. The user is looking for the specific steps to get copies of their W-2s from DFAS.
