Submitting files

Kentucky accepts electronic filing for Prior Years.
Corrections must be paper filed.
See below.

CFS does not support CD filing because Form 42A806-CD is not supported by CFS and the form is required to accompany the CD.

DOR no longer accepts paper copies of Forms W-2, W-2G or 1099. Payers issuing 25 or fewer withholding statements, 1099’s with KY tax, or W-2G’s, must either file Form K-5 or submit the information in the accepted electronic format.

To file W2s, 1099s and W2Gs, electronically, you must first request access to become a Transmitter. Once completed you will be able to submit these in the MyTaxe​s.ky.gov portal.

To become a Transmitter, please refer to the How to Guide for Transmitters.

If you have questions, please email us at: WHTransmitterRequest@ky.gov

Transmitter passwords expire every 90 days. Failure to update the credentials by logging in to MyTaxes will result in failed transmissions.
