IRS Form W-2 PDF Password Remover
Your W-2 wage and tax statement downloaded from your employer, ADP, or the IRS may be saved as a password-protected PDF. The standard access codes are the last 4 digits of your SSN combined with your prior-year Adjusted Gross Income (AGI), or just your prior-year AGI alone. ADP teams also sometimes issue W-2 forms using a CSV-format ZIP code scheme — try the 5-digit ZIP first.
Prior-year AGI (from last return) OR last 4 of SSN + AGI OR ZIP code (for ADP)

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the W-2 PDF password?
Most employers use your prior-year AGI as the password. ADP users can also try the 5-digit ZIP code of the workplace address. Enter AGI without dollar sign or commas.
ADP password not working?
Some ADP workspaces issue W-2 PDFs with the 5-digit workplace ZIP code as the password. Try 12345 or whatever ZIP code is listed on your W-2 form before trying AGI.

Yes. The PDF never leaves your device. All processing happens in your browser using JavaScript — no data is sent to any server. You can even switch off your internet after uploading and the tool still works.
Does the unlocked PDF lose any data?
