Sign up to receive an electronic W-2

The following message is shared on behalf of Payroll Services.

Wake Forest University offers employees to elect to receive their W-2s electronically. Electronic W-2s are available up to two weeks sooner than printed and mailed forms. Additionally, they can be easily downloaded through Automatic Data Process (ADP) into tax software, reducing the risk of keying errors and the time it takes to file taxes and receive returns. Electronic W-2s also help protect the environment by reducing printed costs and offer a more secure distribution of your confidential information.

If you are a new employee or you have not previously elected to receive an electronic W-2, please enroll using the following instructions:

1. In Workday, click the Pay worklet (icon)
2. In the View section, click My Tax Documents (click More for additional options)
3. Under the Printing Election column, click Edit
4. Select Receive electronic copy of my Year End Tax Documents
5. Click OK.
6. Click Done

If you have any questions or need assistance during the enrollment process, please contact payroll@wfu.edu.
