Where can I get a tax form for the severance package I received in 2019?

I need help. I have been trying to get an answer for MONTHS from the VA. I keep getting directed to a new person or placed on hold for hours. When I was discharged, I received a severance package. This was taxed and I am able to receive that money back, however, I need a w-2 to do so or some sort of tax form. The deadline is tomorrow and I am desperate for an answer. The tax form is not located on mypay.com.

a copy of your tax return from when you filed taxes on that money should work. If you didn't keep a copy of your tax return you may be SOL.

Was this money included in your income taxes for the year you received it? Was it on an LES or come to you after you separated?

If you do not have it and since the deadline is today, I suggest that you use the paperwork that you got when you outprocessed finance.

Who paid you DFAS or the VA? As a last resort you can call the IRS and state why you are calling and perhaps the information will be in what they call a TRANSCRIPT.
