• Employers must file Forms W-2 electronically if the number of Forms W-2 is 25 or more. If 24 or fewer, the employer may file electronically (online manual data entry). Reference the DC “Income Tax Withholding Statements Electronic Submission Temporary Act of 2012”. Make sure that your data file is in a.txt format.
IWire is an online portal where employers submit W-2s and 1099s to us electronically. With iWire you can either upload a W-2 or 1099 text file, or manually enter the information.
Electronic filing requirements Businesses and payroll service providers must submit all W-2s electronically using iWire. Businesses that issue 1099s must also submit their information returns using iWire. We don't accept information returns in any other format.
We may assess penalties of up to $25,000 for not filing electronically, filing incorrect W-2s or 1099s, or filing late.Required 1099s are the 1099-G, 1099-MISC, 1099-R, and W-2G. Other 1099s—including 1099-DIV and 1099-INT—are not required. Important information W-2s and iWire filing How will the new statewide transit tax be reported in iWire?
As with prior years, there will still be three separate W-2 filing options (manual entry, spreadsheet import, and bulk file). Manual entry—There will be two new fields: 'Statewide Transit Taxable Wages' and 'Statewide Transit Tax Withheld.' These fields will be labeled as 'Box 14' in addition to the regular 'Other' Box 14 where other information can be entered. Spreadsheet import—The updated spreadsheet template option will have two new columns in the Form W-2 worksheet labeled 'Box 14': 'Statewide Transit Wage' and 'Statewide Transit Withholding.'
Bulk file—The updated bulk file specifications are available under 'File Specifications' on the right-hand side of this page. Where does the new statewide transit tax get reported on the Form W-2? There isn't currently a requirement to report the statewide transit tax on the Form W-2. We're analyzing the impact of adopting an administrative rule that requires statewide transit tax wages and withholding to be reported in Box 14 of the W-2. This prospective rule change would be part of our fall 2018 rulemaking process.
The draft rule would be posted on our website for review, and there would be the opportunity for public comment on the potential impacts of this requirement. Deadline change The deadline for filing W-2s and 1099s, where miscellaneous income is reported (Box 7), is January 31 of the following year. Other forms—1099-MISC, 1099-R, 1099-G, and W-2G—are due on March 31 of the following year. Oregon's laws require that its deadlines mirror similar federal deadlines. In 2017, the federal government moved its deadline from March 31 to January 31 in.
