W-2 Statements
W-2 Wage and Tax Statements are mailed directly from The State Controller's Office by January 31st of each year. W-2s are mailed to the MAILING address on record as of December 15, 2023.
You may download and print prior year W-2s through the Cal Employee Connect portal. Please refer to our help page for registration instructions. CEC is the State Controller's web-based portal that allows you to view/print your paystubs and Form W-2s. Employees who opt-in to the new feature will be able to view and download current and previous years' Form W-2s using any internet-connected device. It will also grant you earlier access to your Form W-2 Wage and Tax Statement than employees who receive the printed version in the mail. The deadline to opt-in for the 2023 W-2 paperless statement is November 30, 2023.
