What do I do if I mailed my tax return and I forgot to attach my W-2 or other supporting documents?

If you failed to attach your Form W-2, Wage and Tax Statement, or any other supporting documentation, please keep those items with your tax records. If we need documentation when we process your return, we will send you a letter requesting copies of the W-2 forms at that time. We may reduce the amount of your withholding shown on your tax return temporarily until we receive your W-2 forms returned with the letter you receive to verify the correct amount of withholding.

You may access additional information by searching the entire Illinois Department of Revenue website.

If you have additional inquiries, you may submit them on the Questions, Comments, or Requests form.
