US Employers Resources

Your Walmart W2 is available online right now if you know where to look. Current associates pull it from OneWalmart. Former associates use MyTaxForm.com with employer code 10108. Below is exactly how both methods work, plus what to do when things go wrong.

Walmart must send your W2 by January 31 every year, whether you still work there or not. If you opted into electronic delivery, you probably had access even earlier. Either way, you don’t need to wait for a paper copy to file your taxes.

Are you a current or former associate?

The biggest source of W2 confusion at Walmart comes down to one question: do you still work there? The portal you use and the login you need are completely different depending on your answer.

Current associates go through OneWalmart. Former associates go through MyTaxForm.com. If you quit or were terminated, OneWalmart will not work for you, and trying to log in there is where most people waste time.

Pick your situation below.

Current associates: getting your W2 from OneWalmart

Log into OneWalmart at one.walmart.com. You’ll need your Walmart Identification Number (WIN) and your password. If you’re logging in from home or your phone, Walmart’s 2-Step Verification (2SV) will kick in, which means you need the code from your authenticator app or phone number on file.

Once you’re logged in:

1. Go to My Money from the main menu.
2. Select W-2 Management.
3. Click Find My W-2.
4. Choose the tax year you need. Your W2 will load as a viewable and downloadable PDF.

That’s it. You can print it or save it to your device. If you need W2s from multiple years, they should all be listed in the same section.

One catch: the Me@Walmart app (the one most associates use for schedules) does not give you direct access to W2s. You need the full OneWalmart portal, either through a browser on your phone or on a computer.

Former associates: getting your W2 from MyTaxForm.com

This is where it gets tricky, and it is the number one W2 complaint from former Walmart associates.

Go to MyTaxForm.com and enter employer code 10108. You’ll need to verify your identity using your WIN, the last four digits of your Social Security number, and your date of birth. If everything checks out, your W2 will be available for download.

The catch: you need to remember your WIN. If you threw away your badge or old pay stubs and don’t have it written down anywhere, call 1-800-WALMART (1-800-925-6278) and ask payroll to look it up. Have your SSN ready.

Walmart also mails a paper W2 to the last address they have on file. If you moved since leaving and didn’t update your address before your last day, that paper copy is sitting in someone else’s mailbox. More on what to do about that below.

The 2-Step Verification lockout problem

Here’s something Walmart doesn’t make obvious: if you’re a former associate and you never set up 2-Step Verification while you were still employed, you’re locked out of OneWalmart. Period. There is no way to set up 2SV after you leave, because the initial setup has to happen on Walmart’s internal network at a store or facility.

This doesn’t matter if you use MyTaxForm.com (it has its own identity verification). But if you were counting on logging into OneWalmart the way you used to, you might hit a wall you weren’t expecting.

Walmart’s EIN and tax details

When entering your W2 information manually or verifying it against your records, Walmart’s Employer Identification Number is 71-0415188. You’ll find this in Box B of your W2.

Walmart’s fiscal year runs February 1 through January 31, which is worth knowing because it means your pay periods near the end of January may cross between fiscal years. Your W2 reflects the calendar tax year (January 1 through December 31), not the fiscal year, so your wages will match what you actually earned during that calendar year.

What to do if your Walmart W2 is missing or wrong

If January 31 has passed and you still don’t have your W2 in hand or online, here’s the order of operations:

Step 1: Check MyTaxForm.com first (code 10108). Even current employees can use this as a backup.

Step 2: Call Walmart payroll at 1-800-925-6278. Tell them you need a W2 reissue. They can verify your mailing address and send a new copy.

Step 3: If it’s mid-February and you’ve gotten nowhere, call the IRS at 1-800-829-1040. Tell them your employer hasn’t provided your W2. The IRS will contact Walmart on your behalf and send you a substitute Form 4852 you can use to file.

Step 4: Request your IRS Wage & Income Transcript. This doesn’t replace your W2, but it shows the same wage data the IRS already has, which is enough for most tax software to work with. You can get this at irs.gov or by calling the IRS directly.

If your W2 has incorrect information (wrong SSN, wrong wages, wrong address), contact Walmart’s HR Help Desk at 1-800-421-1362. They can issue a corrected W-2c form.

How to read your Walmart W2

For a detailed guide on what every box on your W2 means, check out our box-by-box W2 breakdown. Here are the boxes that trip up Walmart associates the most:

Box 1 (Wages, tips, other compensation): This is your taxable income after pre-tax deductions like 401(k) contributions and health insurance premiums. It will be lower than your gross pay.

Box 12: Look for code D (401k contributions), code DD (cost of employer-sponsored health coverage), and code W (HSA contributions). These aren’t errors even though they can make the numbers look confusing.

Box 14 (Other): Walmart sometimes uses this for state-specific items like disability insurance or paid family leave contributions. It depends on your state.

Used Walmart’s employee discount card or the extra holiday 15% bonus during the year? That discount isn’t taxable and won’t show on your W2. Same for the regular 10% associate discount on merchandise and groceries.

Deadlines you should know

If you’re waiting on a corrected W-2c, you can file for an extension using IRS Form 4868. This gives you until October 15 to file, though you’ll still owe any estimated taxes by April 15.

Other Walmart employee resources

Sorting out your W2 often means sorting out other things too. You might need information about your Walmart pay stubs and login portals, your PTO payout if you left the company, or your benefits after termination. All of these can affect what shows up on your W2 and how you file.
