Where Do I Get My W-2 From Walmart?
First, any past or current Walmart associate should contact Walmart’s payroll services department for their W-2.
After contacting Walmart payroll services, associates should be able to help you recover your lost W-2 form if it’s physically available.
However, they need to file a formal request for the document on your behalf if it isn’t available.
Also, former associates who still have access to their OneWalmart account sign-in information can request access to a W-2 online.

How Do I Get My W-2 Form From Walmart As A Former Employee?
If you need your W-2 form quickly and cannot access the link from the above section, you may need to try calling your Walmart store’s payroll department directly.
Also, you can request that Walmart mail you a copy of your W-2 form. However, this option will most likely take the longest and can have harsh tax implications.
After searching online, I found that some past employees accessed current year W-2s through My Tax Form.
Additionally, to access Walmart’s W-2’s you need to enter employer code 10108 and confirm your identity.
After your identity is verified, the site gives you access to the current or past W-2s after you pay a fee.
Does Walmart Mail Out W-2s?
To speed the processing of the W-2 form, employees can download their W-2 documents from the secure OneWalmart portal.
However, if you don’t remember your login information, the username and password are used to access Walmart portals, including your daily clock in.
If you still cannot log in to the portal, contact Walmart Field support by calling 479-273-4357 for assistance.
When Does Walmart Send Out W-2 Forms?
The IRS federally mandates that all employers, including Walmart, provide employees with W-2 forms between January 31st and February 28th.
What Is The EIN For Walmart?
A W-2 EIN is a number given to a business for identification by the IRS. For Walmart, Inc., the EIN is 71-0415188.
That said, you need to provide this number when you file your taxes to confirm who paid your wages.
Where Is The EIN Found On Your Walmart W-2?
If you want to find the EIN on your W-2 form, the best location to search for it is in Box B, and it’s a nine-digit number (71-0415188).
Additionally, if you don’t have access to your W-2, you can find your EIN in several other ways, including:
- Ask the payroll or HR department at your Walmart store.
- If you worked at Walmart last year, it could be found on last year’s W-2 form or the previous year’s tax return.
- For a company of Walmart’s size, you can often find the EIN online at free web search portals like this one here!
What Can I Do If My Employer Doesn’t Give Me A W-2 form?
If you don’t get a W-2 from your employer, you should contact them for assistance because it can lead to you filing taxes late and incurring heavy fines.
That said, there are three things that you can do if your employer does not give you a W-2 form:
- Request the W-2 form in writing to the employer.
- Ask for the W-2 form from your human resources (HR) representative.
- File Form 4852 with the IRS to request an extension of time to file your tax return.

Conclusion
With tax season around the corner, knowing what to do if you can’t get your W-2 form from Walmart is essential.
That said, you should contact the location you worked at as soon as possible.
Sometimes, Walmart might not have given you your W-2 by mistake, or it might be able to send it electronically.
Also, you should contact the IRS and request a time extension if the documents are not available with Walmart or the IRS before the April 15th deadline.
