I was just wondering if anyone knew of when the W2s would be coming out? I know it should be soon but wasnt sure exactly when... 

Mine doesn't come out until the end of January. It is a law that they have to be mailed by the last day of January. Many companies like to wait till then. 

If you know your EIN, you can use the last paystub of the year also, to go ahead and file. Or you can probably bring the last stub to an accounting firm like Jackson Hewitt or HR Block for help. They can use it to file the taxes. 

this is for the military w-2s https://mypay.dfas.mil/mypay.aspx scroll down and you will see a list of different ones hope this helps 

For active duty army, they should be out no later than 20Jan. 

A few of my friends have already got theirs but I haven't. I thought they all came out at once (military) but I guess not. 

military w2's will be out on the 20th of Jan. 

No they don't all come out at once. Weird how that is, but too true. If the 20th comes around and you don't get it then or before, then on the 21st start making phone calls.

If you go to mypay. on the home page it gives you a list of the publish dates for tge different categories. but all active duty is on jan 20 

I thought it was BY January 20th? 

no they will not be availabe until the 20th. 

I asked hubby and he got his, we are just now waiting for mine from the French Quarter. Does anyone know the number for the tax place on post? 

Hmm. Thats weird how some people have got theirs already. 

Yea.. No clue why they do it that way? How is your little man? He must be getting big! 

theres an h and r blaco outside of post on entrance rd. just google h&r block and type in the zipcode and it will give you the phone number and address. 

Yes but the military will do it free.... 

it is BY the 20th. as for doing taxes...I suggest using turbo tax and do it yourself online. It walks you through everything step by step. H&R Block is good, but imagine how much you are being charged! Also, they don't catch every deduction or credit you should get, where using turbo tax its easier to catch that stuff. Like child care, buying a car, you wouldn't believe the stuff you get deductions and credits for this year! 

I always use the free on-post service. 

I used them about 4 years ago and they did a great job! Do you know if you need an apt to go to it? Or is it walk in only? 

You call them and set up an appointment. They only take 10 walk-ins a day. 5 in the morning, 5 in the afternoon. 

Yes he is getting so big! He is almost walking now!! How are you doing? How is South Fort? lol 

Oh don't get the army to do your taxes. They have been known to mess things up quite badly. Also in Louisiana you do not have to be certified to prepare taxes. Anyone can set up shop and do it. I am a from one of two states that require certification and am a certified tax preparer in Oregon. I think everyone should know how to do their own taxes and am willing to show you how and teach you what you need to know if anyone would like to do that. 

Rachelle we did our taexes online but maybe we didnt do it right or didnt understand a question and would love for you to come over and help out, and show us what we need to know.. my mother calculated off my hubbys last paycheck stub that we were only getting 700 back but she said she didnt know if she did it right and i heard its better to look at the W2 form 

i meant we did them online last year 

Taxes can be done with the end of the year LES but I do prefer to use a W-2. Most military members taxes are straight forward since they do not itemize deductions. Plus military can e-file for free many places. Anyone who wants me to help them out just send me a private message and we can work out a time that would be possible. I'm one of those weirdos who likes doing taxes so it is fun for me to help others. :) 

Anyone else get the "MyPay is currently having techinical difficulties" message when you tried to log on to get the w2 today? Figures. 

I'm getting "high volume, please try again in 3-4 hours". Bull crap. They should have a better method for this! 

Jenn I got same thing when I tried 

Grrrr.... what did they expect making them all available in ONE day???
