Submitting files

The Delaware Division of Revenue only accepts W-2c in paper format. At the present time, these forms cannot be electronically filed.
  • Starting with TY22, Delaware form W-3 will be replaced by form WTH-REC.
  • The number assigned to your W-2/1099 file after upload  (23-####) confirms that your file was received.  Confirmation email is no longer sent when files are processed.
  • Online submission of test W-2/1099 files is no longer supported.

Registration is not currently required for online submission of annual reports of W-2/1099 data.  Online submission of WTH-REC (W-3), singly or in bulk, requires registration with the Delaware Taxpayer Portal.

Delaware Form WTH-REC (W-3) must be filed for each EIN under which Delaware withholding was reported on W-2 or 1099 forms. Please do not submit Federal form W-3 to Delaware

 What options are available for WTH-REC (W-3) submission?

A. Currently, there are three:

  • paper – Employers and payers can file on paper.
  • online bulk submission – Bulk submitters are required to submit online.  Bulk WTH-REC submission is available through the Delaware Taxpayer Portal.
  • portal manual entry – Employers can file form WTH-REC through the Delaware Taxpayer Portal.

If you are unable to comply with any of the requirements stated here, please contact: DOR_W2_1099@delaware.gov to request a variance.
