The law requires all businesses to file electronically. Use this application to file original and amended NC-3s and withholding statements.

Prior to submitting your file, the eNC3 application will allow you to test your file layout and confirm if it’s formatted correctly. This will ensure your file will be uploaded successfully without generating an error.
