*Professional Edition Feature*

 

For filing W-2 Corrections, the W-2c form is used.  This is a universal "year-less" form that changes periodically, but can be used for filing corrections in any year.

 

NOTE: When filing the W-2c, we do not need to check the 'Corrections' box in Company maintenance and we do not need to select 'print corrected forms' when printing the W-2c.

 

Once a W-2c record is created, the W-2c becomes an option to print, review, and e-file just like any other form.

 

There are 2 ways to create a W-2c. Create from a current W-2 or manual Data Entry.  Please read the Data Entry section for information about editing the form.

 

Create from Current W-2

 

1. If you currently have the original W-2 in Magtax, locate the form in W-2 maintenance.  Do not change any data from the original filing.
