Printed Copies of Your W-2
Effective for your 2024 tax return, all GVSU faculty and staff will receive a paper copy W-2 in the mail that will be postmarked by January 31, 2025.
The default setting for W-2s in Workday is both electronic and paper delivery. For your 2025 tax return, we encourage you to choose electronic-only delivery for faster access and to support GVSU's sustainability efforts:
- Avoid delays: Receive your W-2 sooner with electronic delivery. Electronic availability for those still opting to receive paper copies may be delayed until the statutory deadline of January 31, 2026, for the 2025 calendar year W-2s.
- Sustainability: Help reduce paper use and support GVSU’s sustainability initiatives. Fewer paper copies help GVSU conserve resources, too.
- Convenience: Your W-2 will be available anytime, reducing the risk of losing it.
