Greatland Offers "Every State" Filing Capabilities for Year-end 1099 and W-2 Reporting

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., Jan. 13, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Greatland, one of the country's leading providers of W-2 and 1099 products for businesses, is raising the industry standard by equipping businesses with the tools necessary to complete their state year-end filing, regardless of the state or its unique reporting requirements.

While the deadline for state W-2 and 1099 filing varies, 40 states require reporting.  For the majority, Feb. 28, 2014 will be the date to remember, but that is not the case across-the-board. If you are one of those business owners who dread paperwork, Greatland's online reporting software, speedEfiler.com is for you. speedEfiler.com lets small and mid-size businesses and professional accountants file W-2 and 1099 forms online, meeting all filing requirements for Federal, State and Recipient reporting in a few simple steps..

speedEfiler.com is also the first retail electronic filing website to provide direct-to-state filing for all states with filing requirements for W-2 & 1099 MISC reporting.  This provides customers with an easy method to get required information to state agencies, and provides status reporting so customers can be assured their filings have been received.

"The reporting requirements for individual states are so expansive and at times challenging, that we wanted to take the uncertainty out of the mix for today's businesses – nobody wants to worry about being penalized," said Bob Nault, Greatland's CEO. "Over the years, our customers have continually expressed how important state filing is to them, and we are pleased to be able to help them address this important issue at filing time."

From January through March, Greatland staffs a temporary state filing lab set up in Green Bay to assure regulations are up to date and all forms are filed properly according to state specifications. This unique facility puts customers' minds at ease, knowing that experts are monitoring every detail to prevent penalties.

State filing penalties vary by state and range from fines of $1 per statement to $100 for late filing or for failure to file. Most states that have penalties in place have a maximum limit that can range as high as $50,000 that the preparer can be fined for that year. Depending on the regulations per state, some allow for an extension to file.

Currently, 40 states have a W-2 or 1099-MISC state filing requirement.  Both speedEfiler.com and FileTaxes.com facilitate the filings and applicable reconciliation forms. See the full list of state filing requirements below or visit speedEfiler.com for more information.
