<human>: Can you condense the text into a few key points?

A former employer has yet to send out my W2. I spoke with someone who still works for that employer and they were told the W2s will be sent out on the 15th of Feb. The company that files my taxes told me there isn't much I can do. This doesn't seem right to me. I feel like I should be able to do more and that there should be penalties for not meeting the deadline of the 31st of Jan. or at least something I can do to hurry things up.

I did find [this] stating I can contact the IRS if i don't have my W2 by the 14th and only says the IRS will contact the employer. But, I could do that..
