Filing Your W-3 Using Patriot PAY W-3 Summary

  
  
After you distribute W-2 forms to your employees, you must file a W-3 Transmittal of Wages with the Social Security Administration along with a copy of each employee's W-2. The W-3 must be typed on the official red-lined paper or filed electronically with the SSA. The W-3 cannot be printed from Patriot PAY. However, you can print a W-3 Summary Report from Patriot PAY to help you prepare the W-3 form. 

Here's how to print the W-3 Summary:

  1. Go to the PAY tab > Year-End Tasks > Company W-3 Summary.
  2. Select the year, and click Run.
  3. Use your browser’s print settings to print the report for your records. For more information, read "Printing from Patriot PAY Using Common Web Browsers." If you have problems opening the PDF, check your browser's pop-up setting. For more information, read "How Do I Disable the Pop-Up Blocker?"
  4. Use this data from the summary to complete the W-3 by mail or electronically with the SSA.
For more information, read the article "Company W-3 Summary Report.To order the W-3 form, refer to the IRS website.
