Define W-2 reporting companies. Except for the Other Federal EIN and Business Termination Date fields, the data on the Year End Reporting Company USA page is supplied by default from the Company Table. |
The W-2 company is the company that reports year-end data. Any correction in company address or additional details such as business termination date should be specified as part of the W-2 company definition. This information is the source of employer data printed on W-2s and is included in transmitter (RA) records and employer (RE) records in electronic reporting.
Note: Define the W-2 reporting company when you set up taxes at the beginning of the year. Do not wait to do this until the end of the year.
