Do i need to ask for Form 16 from previous employer

Hi,

I have left my previous employer in the 3rd week of February this year. Now i am in the new organization which gave me Form 16 only for the period (last week of February and March 2010). Can i ask Form 16 from the previous employer to file the IT returns now. What can i do at this point where i need to file the IT returns.

Please advice.

Thanks,
Sanjay

Call them up and ask them to mail this to you

For those that did not understand the context - Form 16 is a document that is used to declare the tax details for an employee for a given financial year.

If my previous employer gives me Form 16, now i will be having 2 Form 16 with me. Then can i file the return using these 2 Form 16 ??

Please clarify..

You should be able to. Did you ask your auditor ?

Yes, you can. From what I remember, the income tax filing form has a section which says "Income from Previous Employer". That's where you fill in the details of your previous employment along with the Form 16 from your previous employer.
