If you have not already opted-in for paperless W-2 statements through Cal Employee Connect (CEC), the deadline for 2025 is November 30, 2025.
Employees who choose the paperless option will be able to view and download their tax statement earlier than those who continue to receive the printed version via mail. The paperless option also helps to:
Support sustainability, a SSU core value;
Minimize the potential for mail theft, loss or receipt of damaged W-2; and
Reduce time to request and receive a duplicate statement if needed.
To opt-in, please log into your CEC account and select “Go W-2 Paperless today!”
If you choose not to enroll in the paperless option, you will continue to receive your W-2 statement by mail and will still be able to view (but not download) it on CEC. If you have previously selected to receive your W-2 statements electronically, you will remain enrolled in the paperless program.
If you need further assistance with CEC, please visit the resources page and/or reach out to [email protected].
