T make the clumns revert t the riginal setup, d nt click Save Reprt Clumns Settings after making the changes. Print the reprt. Step 2: Classifying Deductins Reprts Deductin/Benefit List: Verify the W-2 Classificatin fr each Deductin by running a Quick Deductin List. It is tempting t skip this step, but Chalkable recmmends checking it in case a change has been missed. Nt all deductins have a W-2 Classificatin. If the W-2 Classificatins field is incrrect r blank and shuld nt be, g t Data Entry Deductins, click the drp dwn cntrl ( ) n the W-2 Classificatins field, and select the prper classificatin. Fr example: FIT shuld be Federal Incme Tax. SIT shuld be State Incme Tax and the tax state must be selected. FICA (Scial Security) and any Alternate FICAs shuld be FICA. FICA Medicare and Medicare (r any alternates) shuld be Medicare. Retirement Plan shuld be used t classify any deductin denting a pensin r retirement plan such as TRS r IMRF fr Illinis and PERF r TRF fr Indiana. The classificatin f Retirement Plan places an X in the Retirement Plan bx n the W-2. If the retirement plan is a full benefit, g t Data Entry Benefits, select the retirement plan benefit recrd and chse Retirement Plan in the W-2 Classificatin field. Emplyer-spnsred Health shuld be used t classify any deductin and/r benefit representing an emplyerspnsred health plan. The amunt is reprted with cde DD in bx 12 and is nt taxable. Additinal reprting guidance, including infrmatin abut the transitinal reprting rules that apply, is available n the Affrdable Care Act Tax Prvisins page f IRS.gv. Chalkable_1220170855 PRWIN 2017 W2 Instructins 4

NOTE: The abve shuld be verified with yur accuntant/auditr r the IRS. These are nly suggestins. Step 3: Classifying Benefits Verify the W-2 Classificatin fr each benefit by running a Quick Benefit List. It is tempting t skip this step, but Chalkable recmmends checking it in case a change has been missed. Reprts Deductin/Benefit List There are six classificatins available in the base benefit, Medicare, Retirement Plan, 457, Medical Savings, 125 Plan HSA Cntributin, and Emplyer-spnsred Health. Nt all benefits have W-2 classificatins. If the W-2 Classificatins field is incrrect r blank and shuld nt be, g t Data Entry Benefits. In edit mde, click the drp dwn cntrl ( ) n the W-2 Classificatins field, and select the prper classificatin. Medicare A benefit is classified as Medicare nly if it is a bard paid Medicare deductin. This means the bard is paying the emplyee s share f Medicare. In this case, there is n Medicare deductin marked as Medicare fr any emplyee wh has this benefit unless part is being paid by the emplyee and part by the emplyer. Selecting the W-2 Medicare classificatin n the benefit will enter the Medicare deductin and wage n the W-2. Retirement Plan A benefit is classified as a Retirement Plan if it is a full benefit, such as TRS r IMRF. This will place an X in the Retirement Plan bx n the W-2. Fr example: The regular teachers TRS is a 1.4% deductin and an 8% benefit. The TRS 1.4% deductin is already classified as Retirement Plan s it is unnecessary t classify the 8% benefit. Having them bth marked will nt hurt anything. Hwever: The administratrs TRS is a full 9.4% benefit. There is n deductin already classified s in this case the benefit W-2 classificatin must be Retirement Plan. Chalkable_1220170855 PRWIN 2017 W2 Instructins 5

457 This is fr elective deferrals and emplyer cntributins (including nn-elective deferrals) t any gvernmental r nngvernmental sectin 457(b) deferred cmpensatin plan. Selecting the W-2 classificatin, 457, will enter cde G in bx 12 f the W-2. Fr mre infrmatin, see the IRS General Instructins fr Frms W-2 and W-3.

Selecting the W-2 classificatin, Health Savings Accunt, will enter cde W in bx 12 f the W-2. Fr mre infrmatin, and t make sure yur plan is a true HSA, g t http://www.irs.gv. Emplyer-spnsred Health Use this t reprt the cst f emplyer-spnsred health cverage. The amunt reprted with cde DD in bx 12 is nt taxable. Additinal reprting guidance, including infrmatin abut the transitinal reprting rules that apply, is available n the Affrdable Care Act Tax Prvisins page f IRS.gv. Nte: These benefit classificatins shuld be verified with yur accuntant/auditr r the IRS. These are nly suggestins. Step 4: Classifying Emplyees Any emplyee qualifying fr specific classificatins that culd nt be classified in the base deductin r benefit in step 2 r 3 must be classified individually. Chalkable recmmends clearing all Emplyee W-2 Classificatins and then reclassifying them s that mistakes can be avided. Clearing and reclassifying is nt required, but highly recmmended. Utilities W-2 Utilities Clear Emplyee W-2 Classificatins The Emplyee W-2 Classificatins reprt must be printed befre all emplyee classificatins can be cleared. Click Reprt. Click Print.

Type the wrd (cde) first in the Cde clumn and the amunt withut a dllar sign in the Amunt clumn. Utilities W-2 Utilities Edit W-2 Infrmatin Step 5: Verify W-2 Ttals The W-2 ttals shuld be verified befre even printing the W-2s t paper. Reprts Print W-2s 1. Preview the W-2s t lad the data, clse the preview, then click the Ttals buttn, and print the reprt.

Cmpare als with the quarterly 941 reprt ttals. 2. DO NOT SKIP THIS STEP! Accuwage befre Printing The verificatin can be taken ne step further befre printing W-2s. Chalkable highly recmmends this. Accuwage is a free cmputer n-line prgram prvided by the Scial Security Administratin. The prgram and instructins fr using it are available at http://www.scialsecurity.gv/emplyer/accuwage/ The Accuwage prgram checks fr ver 200 pssible errrs. Even if yu will be submitting paper W-2s, skip nw t Magnetic Media (page 18), create the electrnic file, and run it thrugh the Accuwage prgram. Fr instructins n creating the electrnic file fr verificatin, see Step 7: Magnetic Media EFW2 step B beginning n page 12. PIN: If filing W-2s electrnically is required, first apply t the S.S.A. fr a PIN, which is used in the file creatin. If filing electrnically is nt required, a file can still be created fr verificatin-nly, but this year a user name and PIN are required. That is a change frm prir years. This will still allw the Accuwage prgram t check fr pssible W-2 errrs n the W-2s. Pssible Accuwage Errr: Submitter EIN and Emplyer/Agent EIN are an exact match. Please verify that yu intend t have the Submitter EIN and the Emplyer EIN match befre prceeding. In the case f Chalkable custmers using the PRWIN sftware t create and submit the W-2 magnetic media, the Submitter and Emplyer EIN's wuld definitely be the same s this wuld be the intentin. Chalkable_1220170855 PRWIN 2017 W2 Instructins 8

Step 6: Printing W-2 Frms Imprtant Nte: Always preview the W-2s t the screen t lad the infrmatin when first ging int W-2s fr the year and each time a change is made t the data.

Chalkable_1220170855 PRWIN 2017 W2 Instructins 11

Critical Tips: Chalkable recmmends printing the W-2s t plain paper first. Befre printing the plain paper r actual W-2 Frms, make sure Step 5: Verify W-2 Ttals beginning n page 8 has been cmpleted. Always print frm the preview s yu can verify at a glance that everything is accurate befre actually printing. Watch the first few if nt all the W-2s as they exit the printer t make sure they are printing prperly. Catching a prblem with printing early in the print jb culd prevent W-2s frm being ruined and having t re-rder. Step 7: Magnetic Media EFW2 Requirements If 250 r mre W-2 Frms fr 2017 must be submitted, the S.S.A. requires submissin by electrnic file unless the IRS granted a waiver. The last year fr filing n tapes and cartridges was fr tax year 2004. The last year fr filing n diskette was fr tax year 2005. Electrnic filing is encuraged even if there are fewer than 250 Frms W-2. Applicatin fr a PIN must be made t the S.S.A. in rder t file by magnetic media Nte: Please visit the Scial Security Administratin web site and search fr Specificatins fr Filing Frms W-2 and W-2c r the Internal Revenue Service at http://www.irs.gv/pub/irs-pdf/iw2w3.pdf fr details regarding the abve requirements.
