If you are not sure what type of paper needs to be used, follow the path: Click on W-2 tax kits → Product page and business tax forms, click on the W-2s → open the product page & business tax forms → click on the W-2s payroll service.
- Before starting your W-2s printing, it is very important for you to have QuickBooks Desktop tax tables updated. You just have to make sure that only the right data appears on the right date in the forms.

Social Security Wages: QuickBooks has a unique way to populate this line:
Total wages are calculated to subject to the social security tax of the employees. Note that it doesn’t include any tips.
For the verification of QuickBooks Result:
For QuickBooks Online: Payroll detail report should be run the whole year. All the deductions should be subtracted from the payment amount which is not linked to social security.
For QuickBooks Desktop: Payroll summary report should be handled with the amount in it. The number is equivalent to the total of the wage base – a total of the wage base tips
W2 form to populate State Income Tax:
This caters to the amount populated in a particular state. If the employee is subjected to the different states, the amount will be applicable for the first state only. For taxable wages in more than two pages, multiple-pages of W-2 forms are printed by QuickBooks.
For the verification of QuickBooks Results:
If you work on QuickBooks Online: Make the payroll detail report run. Make sure you check the SIT Amount and then numbers should be compared. Now, check whether the item is taxable or not in State Income Tax.
If you work on QuickBooks Desktop: A payroll summary report for the whole year. State withholding amount and the numbers should be equal.
Double-click on the number and then check how and what the transactions contribute to the total amount.
