Does your small Biz have W-2 and/or 1099-MISC questions?
We've got your answers!
Here are three tips to get you moving in the right direction.
When Do W-2 & 1099-MISC Forms Have to Be Filed?
January 31, 2019 is the deadline for giving W-2 forms to employees and 1099-MISC forms to non-employees for 2018.
It is also the deadline for filing these forms with the appropriate government agency.
Note:The January 31 deadline may be different in some years if that date falls on a weekend or a holiday. In either of these cases, the deadline for that year is the next business day.
Where Do I Get the Forms?
Short on time? Cathell Tax, Translation & Bookkeeping Service has forms available and can prepare W-2, W-3, 1099-MISC, and the 1096 forms for small your business.
Additionally, carbon and/or laser print forms can be purchased from various office supply stores such as Staples and Office Supply. They can also be purchased online from a variety of sources.
Note: You CANNOT download and print the forms from the internet, not even from the IRS. Copy A of the W-2 form is a specific color of red ink that cannot be duplicated.
