What is the deadline for filing W-2 forms with the Social Security Administration?

January 1
February 28
April 15
July 1

The correct answer is: February 28

The deadline for filing W-2 forms with the Social Security Administration is February 28. This is significant because it aligns with the requirement for employers to report the total wages paid and the taxes withheld for each employee for the previous calendar year. By setting this date, the IRS ensures that they can process the information efficiently and provide accurate data for taxpayer filings. Employers are required to submit W-2 forms, along with a transmittal form (known as Form W-3), either electronically or via mail to the SSA. The February 28 deadline specifically applies to paper submissions. If the W-2 forms are filed electronically, the deadline is typically extended to March 31, providing some flexibility for businesses to manage their reporting processes. This timeline helps maintain timely communication between employers, employees, and the government regarding wage and tax information.
