I'm closing on a house on the 23rd of February but to do so my lender says they need my 2017 W2 from a company I left at the end of April. My former employer mailed my W2 to an address over 2 years old and said they won't be able to send me a copy of it until after the 19th of February but my lender said if they don't have it before then we have to push back the closing date. If we push back the closing date we lose our rate lock and have to pay to extend it, Im also going to have to pay for an additional 2 months on my apartment to extend the lease past the end of February.
Essentially is there anything I can do to force my employees to provide me with a copy of my W2 or am I just out ano
