How to Opt in to Receive Electronic Forms W-2:
The opt-in process is easy using the Pitt Worx system. To receive your Form W-2 electronically, you will need to provide your consent. To receive your Form W-2 electronically, you must provide consent by December 31, 2024. If you have not previously opted in and do not opt in by December 31, 2024, then you must wait to receive a paper Form W-2 via US mail. Utilize the step-by-step instructions on this page under section “to opt in to receive forms W-2.”
Confirming if you previously opted in:
Employees may confirm they have selected this option for electronic delivery by following the instructions on this page under section “to confirm if you previously opted in”.
When can you access your electronic Form W-2?
A notification from ADP will be sent out to let you know when Forms W-2 are available in January.
Non-wage Payments:
The electronic opt-in does not apply to non-wage payments, such as Training Grants, Predoctoral Fellowships and Post Doctoral Scholarships as they are not W-2 reportable. Recipients of these non-wage payments can still opt in for paperless forms through ADP, however, no Form W-2 will be issued or available for those payments. Recipients of non-wage payments can visit this page or visit our payroll website and select their role for additional year end information.
