My employees receive their W-2s electronically via Workforce, so I should not need to set up W-2 printing. However, I am still receiving a message to set up W-2 printing, before I can file and archive the forms: W-2 Copies B, C, & 2 (employee) due by 1/31. I use QB online. Does this "filing" matter? I tried everything but cannot by pass this message to ask me to set up W-2 printing.
The steps suggested by QB Assistant doesn't work - I cannot find 1/2 of the buttons it's suggesting. Please advise, thanks!
If your employees receive their W-2s electronically via Workforce, you do not need to set up W-2 printing. However, if you are still receiving a message to set up W-2 printing, you can try the following steps:
1. Go to the Employees menu and select Payroll Tax Forms & W-2s. (cannot find this easily)
2. Select Process Payroll Forms and then select Annual Form W-2/W-3 - Wage and Tax Statement/Transmittal. (cannot find this easily)
3. Select Create Form and then select the year. (cannot find this easily)
4. Select OK and then select all or individual employees to file.
5. Select all or individual employees to print.
6. Review each W-2 and select Submit Form to print and file the forms.
If you continue to have issues, we recommend speaking with a QuickBooks expert for further assistance.
