W2c EFW2c (PR298)
Run W-2c EFW2 (PR298) to create W2c forms for government reporting or create an EFW2c file based on "Social Security's Specifications for Filing Forms W-2c Electronically (EFW2C). For EFW2C reporting, this program only supports the file layout for submission to the Social Security Administration.
Processing Effect
To create the W-2c and/or EFW2C, the PR298 program compares the output .CSV files from the original and the corrected run of the W-2 Form Printing (PR297) and/or EFW2 files for use as the input files for the PR298. This program cannot be run without these files.
Before you submit your file, you can validate it using the AccuWage program. This program can be downloaded from the Social Security Administration website. This program checks the output from PR298 for common errors. For more information, check the Social Security Administration website.
