New! January Year End Reporting 2023 Webinar (80 mins)

Passport Software 2023 Year-End (YE) Updates Overview:

Electronic filing is now required for 10 or more combined W-2s/1099s. The YE update
provides for the creation of a new .csv file format for electronic filing of 1099s using the
IRS IRIS (Information Returns Intake System). PBS/CashPoint still produces the text file
format for the FIRE system (which the IRS plans to phase out.)
Enhanced plain paper PDF printing for W-2s.

New W-2 and Payroll and Accounts Payable 1099 Proxy Filing Services

Passport Software, Inc., is now offering Federal W-2 and 1099 proxy filing services
for PBS and CashPoint customers current on the Passport Update Program (PUP).

Passport Software’s proxy filing service includes uploading client-generated
Electronic Filing W-2 (EFW2) files to the IRS Business Services Online (BSO)site with
email notification to the client of acceptance.

This service is Federal filing only – not for individual state filing, and does not include
printed hard copy forms.

Passport will also submit to the Social Security Administration for Social Security Number
Verification Services (SSNVS).

Form W-2c submissions are billable at current hourly support rates.

Should you have any questions, comments or need to learn more about any of the topics above,
please contact your Passport Partner. Not sure who to call? Contact Marti Walt - 800.969.7900 x103
