Submitting files

The state accepts electronic filing for Prior Years.
Rhode Island accepts W-2C electronic filing for Corrections..

There will be three (3) ways that a taxpayer (or other user) can upload files to the R.I. Division of Taxation:

  1. A taxpayer with an eligible account on Taxation’s portal can upload a file to their account for themselves.
  2. A CPA with access to multiple clients’ accounts on Taxation’s portal can upload a file for those particular clients.
  3. A payroll provider or “mass bulk filer” can register with the Division of Taxation through the Payroll Letter of Intent 2024 Payroll Provider LOI. Submit a completed Payroll Letter of Intent (LOI) to Tax.VendorForms@tax.ri.gov. Upon successful review of your Payroll LOI, you will be registered as a bulk filer and you will be able to submit files through the bulk process.
