The tax filing season is approaching, and according to the majority of business owners, tax professionals, and payroll providers, it’s hardly the most…. delightful time…. of the year. You might be wondering how you’re going to print and mail completed employee tax forms like W-2s, 1099s, and 1099 MISC, (and 2021’s brand new tax form that supplements the 1099 MISC: the 1099 NEC), especially if you and your staff are working remotely given how many things are currently restricted. Before you know it, the annoying deadline will have passed.
We Need Paper!
The ordering of the extremely particular kinds of paper and envelopes required for these documents is another well-known pain point of this task. Forms W-2, transmittal form W-3, form 940 for reporting FUTA liabilities, form 941 for reporting payroll taxes and employee earnings, form 944 for firms that report federal income and FICA taxes yearly, form 1095-B if you provide self-insured health insurance to your employees, and more are required.
Shuffle The Envelopes!
Additionally, there are six distinct types of envelopes that must be used to mail your paperwork. When buying in small quantities, the forms and envelopes are not only expensive but also challenging to estimate how much to order. If you order too much, the extra paper is thrown in the trash because you can’t use it again. If you place an inadequate order, shipment may take several weeks. Especially if you only require one or two extra sheets, this is irritating.
You just submit the tax information (usually a fixed field text file you receive from your accountant) to “Pro Automation“, we convert it to a PDF, process and print the filled-out forms, and then you hand them over to the USPS for delivery to your employees.
You can be sure that your employees will receive the necessary papers and that their privacy will be maintained because our system has sent millions of pieces and has never made a mistake. We also provide astounding turnaround times and costs that are exceptionally competitive. For a free tax mailing analysis and quote, give us a call right away. We are eager to assist you!
The Simple Way to Send 1099s
Small business owners are familiar with the challenges of maintaining 1099s. It is totally up to you to manage if you don’t have the required minimum number of contractual employees. I’d want to explain how to send 1099s quickly and easily using “Pro Automation.”
Buying the Right Stationery
Packets of 10 are sold in some stores. Several retailers sell packs of twenty-five. I’m not aware of any place where you can get individual packets. Numerous business associates have also informed me that the majority of retail establishments only stock a small selection of packet choices. It’s very likely that you’ll need to shop at multiple locations to get what your business needs.
What If You Just Need a Little Bit?
Like anything else, they cost more if you buy in smaller quantities. Furthermore, the fact that 1099 packets (also known as W2 packets) are only valid for that specific year makes them extra annoying. Any unused packets are a complete waste of money. You can certainly keep the envelopes, but even that would be bothersome given how inept we are at keeping track of even a little collection of objects. I’m not very good at that. Often. Especially if you’re counting on me to monitor it for a full year. I can’t even recall what I had for breakfast yesterday, much less where a stack of nine envelopes from a year ago landed.
Just a heads up: Given that the industry is still experiencing a supply shortage, I believe that getting stationary packets this year may be even more challenging.
