Do I have to e-file?

Form 941 (also 940 and 943)

Currently, the IRS does not require filers to electronically file Form 941, 940 and 943. However, users of CFS 941/940 software have the capability to efile these forms so long as they are credentialed to do so. See "Requirements to E-File Forms 94x (941/940/943)."

The IRS does not currently allow filers to efile Form 941-X. Consequently, there is no software available from any source that accommodates efiling Form 941-X. This form must be paper-filed.

Form W-2 and W-2c

The IRS now requires employers to electronically file if they have an aggregate of 10 of more of certain types of returns, including W-2s and 1099s [emphasis added]. See "IRS lowers e-filing threshold to 10 information returns of any type."

Forms 1099 and 1098/1099 series)

The IRS now requires employers to electronically file if they have an aggregate of 10 of more of certain types of returns, including W-2s and 1099s [emphasis added]. See "IRS lowers e-filing threshold to 10 information returns of any type."
