Hi - I am trying to re-print W-2 and W-3 for SSA for 2023 in QuickBooks Online.  I am only seeing access to 2024 forms.  Any guidance is appreciated.  Thank you.

When printing your previous W-2 and W-3 forms in QuickBooks Online, jpykevail. You can reprint them by accessing the archived forms on your Payroll Tax Center. I'd be glad to help you print them.

 

If you've already e-filed with us at that time, you can access it through your Payroll Tax Center. However, if you haven't found it in your archived forms, you may have filed manually outside QuickBooks.

 

To print your previous W-2 and W-3, follow these steps:

 

  1. Log in to your QBO account. 
  2. On the left panel, select Taxes.
  3. Under Payroll tax, click the Fillings tax.
  4. Click Archive, then filter the Start date and End date depending on when you've filed your W-2.
  5. Once found, click the Printer icon to print it.

 

Furthermore, you can refer to this article to learn how to print your employee's W-2 and W-3 in QBO.

 

Additionally, if your employee finds a mistake in their W-2, you can fix it by visiting this article: Fix an incorrect W-2 and W-3.

Thanks.  I don't have this as an option under the archive - only 940 and 941's.

I appreciate your diligent effort in finding the W-2 forms from previous years so you can print them promptly, @jpykevail. Let me offer additional steps to locate this form successfully.

 

Aside from checking your previously filed forms in the Archived forms, we can also check your W-2 forms directly in the W-2s section under Filings & Forms:

 

  1. Go to the Payroll tab and select Payroll Tax.

  2. Click on the Resources, then select W-2s.

  3. Click on the View or Manage W-2s option to access and print them.

 

Alternatively, if you're an employee who has been invited by your employer to QuickBooks Workforce, you can conveniently access your W-2 forms directly through the platform.

 

To begin with, here's how to access through QuickBooks Workforce App:

 

  1. Go to Taxes, or More, then click W2s.
  2. Click Download.
  3. Select the W-2 you want to view or print.

 

If you're using QuickBooks Workforce through a web browser, please follow these steps:

 

  1. Sign in to workforce.intuit.com.
  2. Go to the Documents menu.
  3. Select W-2s or Shared Documents.
  4. Click the W-2 copy or document that you want to view or download. Then, you can print it after.

 

However, if you still can't access W-2 forms for the year 2023, I suggest reaching out to our Live Support Team. They are equipped with the essential tools and resources to help you navigate the process and ensure you can obtain your W-2 forms.

 

If you're either an employer or an employee and you discover an error on your W-2 or W-3 form, we have this helpful resource available that offers detailed guidance on how to fix the mistake: Fix an incorrect W-2 and W-3.

 

Accessing previous W-2 forms is crucial for accurate tax reporting and effective financial tracking and we want to ensure you have convenient access to these important resources. I'll be around to assist if you need further help. Take care.
