Why Should You Attend:

Preparing for year-end should not begin in October or November as it may have in the past. Preparation should begin in January and be conducted throughout the calendar year. This is especially important now as the IRS is looking at year-end compliance issues.

In this webinar instructor will update on the latest best practices to help your payroll department transition from a year end crunch to a smooth and compliant year end process. The training will discuss how check lists can help keep you on track to ensure all tasks are completed. It will cover how your duplicate form W-2 request form and procedures should be set up and in place in advance of issuing the forms and how it will assist you when processing those requests in the new year.
