Requesting Duplicate 2023 Form W-2s

Action Required: Human Resources (HR) Offices - Share the following information with all state employees.

Description: Requesting a Duplicate 2023 Form W-2

Those employees who did not “opt-in” to receiving their 2023 Form W-2, Wage and Tax Statement (Form W-2) electronically via Cal Employee Connect (CEC) will have their 2023 Form W-2 mailed on or before January 31, 2024. Should the employee need a duplicate copy, they will have two options:

• Opt-in to the Form W-2 Paperless Statement feature and have access to view, download, and print current and previous years’ Form W-2s using any internet-connected device. The next opportunity to enroll in Form W-2 Paperless Statement will be February 1^st.
• Request the copy from the State Controller's Office (SCO). To do so, the employee must complete a Standard Form 436: Duplicate Wage and Tax Statement and submit via their human resources office.
  • Note: The employee will not be eligible for a fee waiver if they chose to receive their Form W-2 electronically through CEC.

If your employees haven’t registered with CEC, please have them sign up today at Cal Employee Connect. It takes less than five minutes to sign-up. Additional information and resources can be found on CEC’s webpage on the SCO website.

If you have questions or need assistance, please contact Cal Employee Connect (CEC) - Help and Feedback.
