Has employer has deducted TDS? He must have ...... if so why is he not giving you Form 16 it requires just as simple filling of a very straightforward & self explanatory form ...... if he is lazy  ;) fill it up for him then all he needs to do is sign it.

You need to attach the original Form 16 along with you return to prove TDS has been provided for.
