Employees and payroll

I'm here to make sure that you can file the form, @beekbeek1.

Yes, you are correct. Today is the deadline for filing the payroll forms like W-2s. Don't worry, you can easily e-file your W-2s in QuickBooks.

To get started, you'll have to set up your W-2 E filing. Just follow the steps below:

1. Select Employees, then Payroll Center.
2. Open the QuickBooks Desktop Payroll Setup.
3. From the Payroll Center, select the File Forms tab.
4. From the Other Activities list at the bottom, select Change Filing Method.
5. Select Continue.
6. Select Federal Form W-2/W-3 from the list of forms, then select Edit.
7. Select E-file, then Finish. This will open the enrollment instructions that you can read and print.
8. Close the View Enrollments window.
9. Hit Finish Later.

Once done, you can now electronically file your W-2s through QuickBooks.

1. Select Employees, then Payroll Tax Forms & W-2s, and then Process Payroll Forms.
2. In the File Forms section, select your state worksheet.
3. Review the Select Filing Period year and change it if you need to.
4. Select Ok.
5. Fill out the W-2 worksheet and select Check for errors to make sure everything is correct before e-filing.
6. When you’re ready, select E-file.
7. Enter your email address and contact phone number.
8. Hit Submit.
