Payroll accountant’s checklist for February:
- Have clients check employees’ requests for duplicate or corrected Forms W-2 to ensure they are signed by employees and the signatures are legitimate.
- For corrected Forms W-2 issued to employees prior to filing, check the Void Box on Copy A, and insert “Corrected” at the top of Copies B, C and 2.
- File Copy A of all paper Forms W-2 and Form W-3 with the SSA and Copy A of all paper Forms 1099 and Form 1096 with the IRS by February 28 (or the next business day if February 28 is a nonbusiness day).
