Pennsylvania - Report to Single Tax Collection District

If you have been filing combined monthly reports in Pennsylvania to a single Tax Collector, place a check in the Pennsylvania - Report to Single Tax Collection District checkbox. This will create a combined annual W2 report for the Tax Collector.

 

 

PA TCD Code

The PA TCD Code field is only active if you checked the Pennsylvania - Report to Single Tax Collection District checkbox. Enter the TCD code of the Tax Collector for which you have been filing monthly combined reports.

 

 

Created On

In the Created On field, use to select the From and To dates for the W-2c's. The dates are inclusive and are based on the Creation Date of the W-2c. These fields allow you to create only specific W-2c's. For example, you may have created a W-2c for an employee in March and sent it to the SSA. However, in May, you notice another change that needs to be made. When you create a forms file, you can specify that the W-2c must have been created between May 1st and May 31st. This will insure that the original W-2c does not get resent to the IRS.

NOTE: This field is only used if the Report Type is W2c.
