Just a reminder to all employers and other businesses. This Friday, January 31, 2020, is the deadline for submitting wage statements and forms for independent contractors with the government. Employers also need to file their copies of Form W-2, Wage and Tax Statement, and Form W-3, Transmittal of Wage and Tax Statements, with the Social Security Administration by said deadline. The deadline also applies to certain Forms 1099-MISC, Miscellaneous Income, filed with the IRS to report non-employee compensation to independent contractors. If an employee does not receive their W-2 by the end of February, as a first step, they should contact their employer.
