<p>Okay, this might stupid but I honestly have no idea.
So if a school requires your parents W-2 forms, do you make a copy of the Employee's Record one? Because you know how there are multiple copies of the W-2, one for the fed, one for the state, etc.</p>
<p>they are all the same. Back in the day, you used to have to actually submit a W-2 when filing a paper tax return. Yup, those were the dark ages (okay so it was only the early 90's)</p>
<p>Any of those is fine, they are all the same</p>
