Social Security and Small Businesses

According to the U.S. Small Business Administration, about 30 million small businesses in the United States employ tens of millions of people. Running a small business can be a 24-7 endeavor. Managing employees, inventory, scheduling, services, and marketing can be challenging.

If you’re a small business owner, or you work for one, we can help make your life easier with our suite of online services. Our business services allow you to file W-2/W-2Cs online and verify your employees’ names and Social Security numbers against our records.

If you run a business, make our Employer W-2 Filing Instructions & Information page your first stop. It will save you valuable time when you need information on W-2s, electronic filing, and verifying Social Security numbers.

You must register to use our free Business Services Online Suite of Services, which also offers fast and secure online W-2 filing options to Certified Public Accountants, enrolled agents, and individuals who process W-2s and W-2Cs.
