This W-2 Data Export contains every employee’s W-2 reporting information for electronic submission to the Social Security Administration.
Refer to the Social Security Administration for instructions and definitions regarding electronic filing.
The SSA provides a tool called AccuWage to validate W-2 export files. You are encouraged to run your file through this program before submission. This tool is not maintained or supported by Apta Software, Inc.
The state in which an employee works is specified in their deduction set. If an employee does not have a deduction set, AptaFund assumes that the employee is working in the same state as the Installation Site and will generate the RS (state income tax) records in the W-2 export. This does not apply in states that do not have an income tax.
