    H1 Transfer, No W2 from Previous employer
    Hello,

    I came to US on May 28 on H1B visa through a consultant in CA but I didn't got any salary from him so I got a permanent job and got my H1B transferred to another company in last week of September. I got paystubs copy from consultant (which were never cashed) and sent them to embassy for transfer too.

    Q1: Now I have W2 form current employer but previous employer says "there is no W2 from their side" and sent me an email about that. Can I file return with my taxes using current W2 or will it have any impact?

    Q2: As current W2 is very simple, Can I file through online resources or through a CPA?

    Please suggest

    Regards,
    FG

    If you earned and received income in 2009, you should get a W-2 for that income.
