Online Preparation and E-File

If you are preparing a small number of forms (<20, e.g.), we suggest you enter the information online one form at a time. There is no limit in the forms you can enter online, but a large number of forms are generally handled better with Excel worksheet, .csv or .txt file.

The following price calculator is for creating forms (PDF) and e-file to the government. PDF copies can be printed on plain paper (no need for pre-printed forms).

Return Type: , Quantity:


W-2 and 1099-misc filing to the States are optional services with additional fee.

You can also request us to print & mail all recipient copies for you, including stamps and the standard 2-window envelopes. Additional charge applies for stamp, envelopes, handling and mailing charges.

All PDF forms are full-size in IRS standard format, not the reduced or substitute formats.



Data file upload and e-File

To create and file a large number of forms (>50, e.g.), we suggest you put your data in an Excel worksheet, .csv, .txt or other formats (MMREF, ICESA, e.g.) and upload the data file to create forms and e-File. The basic online e-File charge (above) applies plus additional data handling and PDF file charges. PDF copies for large batches could take up to 24 hours to generate.

Custom Jobs

If your data file is not in the perfect format (separate out address, city, State, etc.) or you need to retrieve the data from another file (MMREF or EFW2, ICESA, etc.), we can help you to get your data ready for efile.

For example, if you can create one file of form 941 data for all of your client companies in .txt format, we can process and efile the form 941s and provide with detailed efile status for each one. We can provide a simple .txt data file format to start. Another example, if your current payroll software generates a XML file of form 941s or DE9C(DE6)s, we can process, efile and provide you with the confirmation. Please contact us if you have questions about pricing or efile submission.
