The form is also used to report FICA taxes to the Social Security Administration. Employers must complete a Form W-2 for each employee to whom they pay a salary. Form W-2 consists of six copies: Copy A - Submitted by the employer to the Social Security Administration. (In addition, the employer must also submit Form W-3, which is a summary of all Forms W-2 completed, along with all Copies A submitted. The Form W-3 must be signed by the employer.) Copy B - To be filed with the employee's federal income tax returns. Copy C - For the employee's records. Copy D - For the employer's records. Copy 1 - To be filed with the employer's state or local income tax returns. Copy 2 - To be filed with the employee's state or local income tax returns. Employers are instructed to send copies B, C, 1, and 2 to their employees generally by January 31, which gives these taxpayers about 2 1/2 months before the April 15 income tax due date.
