INQUIRY 16-11, IRS Form W-2, Wage and Tax Statement, Available for Use with TurboTax or At Home

Published: December 15, 2016
Effective: January 1, 2017

Summary

The 2016 Tax Year Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Form W-2, Wage and Tax Statement, is expected to be available to Employee Personal Page (EPP) users by the end of January 2017 for use with TurboTax or At Home.

Affected Systems

Implementation

The National Finance Center (NFC) has worked with the software providers to make TurboTax or At Home interoperable with EPP. In addition to printing their IRS Form W-2, employees can import their 2016 Wage and Tax Statement (W-2) information into TurboTax or At Home.

Users will be required to have a specific W-2 password established in EPP to import into TurboTax or At Home. If no password has been established, users will log into EPP and access the Change W2 Password section under the Preferences tab. Under the Change W2 Password section, users will create a password. This password will be used when importing W-2 information into their tax filing software.

Resources

Log on to the Internet and go to the NFC Web site (www.nfc.usda.gov). Select the HR and Payroll Clients page from the MyNFC drop-down menu and select the My EPP icon on the HR/Payroll Application Launchpad.
