Deadline to mail w2

The deadline to mail W-2 forms to employees is January 31st of each year. This deadline applies to employers who file paper W-2 forms with the Social Security Administration (SSA).

However, if you file W-2 forms electronically with the SSA, the deadline is February 28th of each year. This is because the SSA requires an extra week to process the electronic submissions.

It's worth noting that the IRS also requires employers to provide a copy of the W-2 form to their employees by January 31st of each year. This is a requirement under the Affordable Care Act (ACA).

Here are some additional deadlines to keep in mind:

Remember to check with the IRS or your state's tax authority for any specific requirements or deadlines that may apply to your business.
