Free Software Helps Wage Reports Accuracy 
AccuWage/AccuW2C is free software from Social Security. It allows you to check W-2 (Wage and Tax Statement) and W-2c (W-2 correction) reports for correctness before you send them to Social Security.  Using AccuWage and AccuW2C greatly reduces submission rejections.  Download the latest version of the AccuWage software before you prepare your wage reports each year.   For more information go to www. socialsecurity.gov/employer/software.htm.
