Learn how to access and read your W-2, what to do if you haven’t received one and more.
Active employees: View and download your W-2
Each year, your W-2 is mailed by Jan. 31 to the mailing address you have on file on Dec. 20. The form can also be accessed digitally shortly after it’s mailed. Follow these steps to view yours:
- Log into my.cu.edu.
- Select the CU Resources tab. (CU System employees will skip this step.)
- Select the top left CU Resources Home dropdown menu, then select My Info and Pay.
- Click the W-2 tile. The form contains personal information, so you must verify your identity to access it.
- Select the Year End Form button to view your W-2.
