text: want to get what we earned last year for taxes where do you go to get this and will a tax refund accept this? have moved around so much so many jobs. unable to remember them all. want to file taxes . will a rapid refund place accept this with out w-4s once i find out where to get earnings statement? no one is keeping track of your income. even if it was correctly reported by your employers to the irs, the irs won't have this information at hand for several months, and by that time they will be more than willing to charge you interest and penalties if you have not paid taxes on that income.
