Electronic W-2 Form 

Through Workday, State of Iowa employees can receive an instant, electronic W-2 Form instead of receiving it by mail.
Electronic W-2s offer several benefits including:
     • Earlier access. Online W-2 Forms will generally be available earlier than mailed copies.
     • Convenience. Through Workday, employees can easily access their W-2s anytime (beginning with the 2021 tax year).
To ensure your electronic W-2 election is recorded before 2022 W-2 Forms are printed and mailed, please
update your preference by January 1, 2023.
Refer to the WorkSmart W-2 Smart Guide or Electronic W-2s - Screenshots for instructions.
