Welcome!
Here’s some information you’ll want to know that will get you started electronically filing your W-2s with the Social Security Administration.
For starters, filing electronically is free, fast and secure!
When you file electronically, you receive an extra month to file because electronically filed W-2s aren’t due until
March 31st. You’ll also receive an acknowledgement receipt.
Business Services Online
Business Service Online offers two options to file W-2s electronically.
If you use compatible payroll software, you can upload files using the Wage
File Upload application. If you use payroll software, we recommend that you test it before filing using SSA’s free software
Accuwage.
If you don’t have payroll software, consider using the
W-2 Online application which allows you to key your W-2 information directly to our website in the
W-2 format and print these for your employees.
Business Services Online also offers
W-2c Online if you need to correct any W-2 errors.
You can verify SSNs online by using SSNVS.
