The updated desktop software automates W-2, W-3, 1099-NEC, and 1096 reporting to meet the IRS 10-return e-filing threshold ahead of 2027 deadlines.
Halfpricesoft.com has released ezW2 2026, an updated desktop tax preparation application designed to help businesses and payroll professionals meet federal electronic filing requirements ahead of the 2027 tax season. The software targets compliance with the IRS mandate requiring e-filing when an employer submits 10 or more information returns.
The application automates the preparation and submission of several key federal forms, including Forms W-2, W-3, 1099-NEC, and 1096. By consolidating these reporting tasks into a single desktop platform, ezW2 2026 aims to reduce the manual burden on small business owners and accounting professionals navigating increasingly strict IRS electronic filing rules.
