To expedite the process of delivering new-hire reports to state agencies, some states allow you to use magnetic media to transmit the new-hire reports. After you print new-hire reports for those states, you can create the magnetic media file that you transmit to the agency. You cannot create a magnetic media file for the generic version of the new-hire report, or for any state that does not accept new-hire reports on magnetic media.

You use the same program (P064253) to create magnetic media for all of the states that accept this format. In the processing options for the report, you enter the work tax area code for the state to which you are submitting the magnetic media. This state should be the same state as the state for which you created the new-hire report.
