2018 ADP W2 template. Editable Wage and Tax Statement template.

A W2 document, also known as a W-2 Wage and Tax Statement, is a tax form used in the United States to report an employee's income and tax withholdings for the year.

Employers are required to issue W2 forms to their employees by January 31st of each year, and the employees use this form to file their federal and state income tax returns. The IRS has a page dedicated to the W2 information page: About Form W-2, Wage and Tax Statement 

This 2018 editable W2 template form contains several fields of information, including:

• Employer information: This includes the employer's name, address, and employer identification number (EIN).
• Employee information: This includes the employee's name, address, and Social Security number.
• Wage and salary information: This includes the total amount of wages and salary earned by the employee during the year, as well as any tips, bonuses, and other compensation.
• Tax withholdings: This includes the amounts of federal, state, and local income tax, Social Security tax, and Medicare tax withheld from the employee's paycheck throughout the year.
• Benefits information: This includes any pre-tax deductions the employee made for benefits such as health insurance, retirement plans, and flexible spending accounts.
• Other information: This can include additional amounts withheld, such as for state disability or unemployment insurance, as well as any other compensation or benefits provided to the employee.
