I picked up a new client a couple months ago, with 50 employees, who has handled all the payroll on their own in Quickbooks desktop for the past three years.
He produced 2015 W-2s at year end, gave them to employees..... but did not file with Soc Sec Admin.
Now we review the Quickbooks file, find there are a month and a half of missing pay periods ("oh, my computer crashed, so I had to run those pay periods on a different computer....")
We've amended the 941s and 940.
But.... what about the W-2s? Do I file "corrected" W-3/W-2s with the Soc Sec Admin, or just regular old W-3/W-2s?
The reason I ask is the Soc Sec Admin has never seen W-2s. But employees got them, and obviously filed them with their tax returns so the IRS has some records.
Would you file "Corrected" W-2s.... or just file (regular) W-2s using the now corrected amounts?
