Review/Update Your Address Information by January 15, 2016 for the Annual W-2 Tax Form Mailing
December 15, 2015
In late January 2016, your W-2 tax form will be mailed to you and an electronic copy will be available in the My UW portal. Your W-2 Form will be mailed to one of the following addresses:
- Your home address unless you already have, or are adding, a mailing address (see below).
- If you have a mailing address, your W-2 will be sent to this address and not your home address.
- If you do not have a home or mailing address, then your W-2 will be sent to your office location.
Please take a few moments to review your address information. You must update your address by January 15, 2016 to ensure that your W-2 Form is delivered to your preferred address.
To Review Your Home Address:
- Log in to MyUW.
- Your home address will be in the \'Personal Information\' module on the ‘Home’ page, or on the ‘Work Record’ tab in the classic view.
- If this is not the address you prefer, click the \'Update my Personal Information\' link to update your address. Your home address will appear in the \'Addresses\' module. To change your address, choose the \"Change addresses\" tab. Then choose the \'edit\' tab next to your home address.
To Review or Add Your Mailing Address:
- Log in to MyUW.
- To view your mailing address, click the \'Update my Personal Information\' link. Your mailing address will be in the \'Addresses\' module.
- If this is not the address you prefer or you wish to add a mailing address, choose \'Change addresses\' tab. Then choose the \'edit\' tab for changing your mailing address or ‘add’ for adding a new mailing address.
While in the ‘Personal Information’ module in the portal, you are also encouraged to use the available links to self-identify your veteran, disability status or ethnicity. Self-identifying is optional. This information is used only for federal reporting purposes and will not be shared in any other way. You are also encouraged to update your Emergency Contact Information, if appropriate.
