W2 / 1099
Employers that issue 10 or more W-2s are required to electronically submit those to the DOR. The taxpayer may be subject to penalties if they issue more than 10 W-2s and do not file as required. You can enter or upload your W2s or 1099s on TAP. More information.
FSET Available
Bulk filing through the FSET program (Fed/State Employment Taxes) is available. If you use a software package, it is likely your software company is participating in FSET and has the capability to transmit returns and payment information to the DOR in bulk. If so, you will not need to use TAP to file and pay. More Information
