Let's make sure the paycheck is entered on your QuickBooks Payroll account, Sherman.
Entering payroll checks for last year needs special handling from our QuickBooks Payroll Team. Hence, I recommend contacting them so they can enter those paychecks.
Once the employees' W-2 forms have accurate data you can file or print them in QuickBooks.
When you select to print those forms, we recommend ordering W-2 paper through us. This ensures your W-2s will print correctly and your employees won’t have any issues when filing.
You can print the employee copies on:
- Blank 3-part perforated paper
- Blank 4-part perforated paper
To order your W-2 kit (includes envelopes):
- Go to QuickBooks Checks & Supplies.
- Select Tax Products.
- Select Blank W-2 Kits.
- Follow the on-screen steps to complete your order.
Then, you can print current year W-2s and W-3. Here's how:
- Select the Taxes & Forms tab.
- Under Forms, select the Annual Forms link.
- From here you can select to print both employer and employee copies of your W-2s and W-3. Employer Copies: Form W-2 (W-2, Copies A & D), Transmittal of Wage and Tax Statements (W-3), Employee Copies: Form W-2 (W-2, Copies B, C & 2).
- Select the View button.
- Click the Print icon to print.
If you are reprinting because your employee lost or didn’t get the original W-2, write REISSUED STATEMENT on the top and include a copy of the W-2 instructions.
