To update your Payroll Tax Forms
Most of the state and federal forms that you prepare require periodic updates to ensure that you are always using the most current versions. You will be notified, every three months, which forms are out of date, and given the opportunity to update them. You can elect to update all of your forms or any combination of forms you need. In addition to the latest versions of the forms, your updates will include any new Payroll Tax Forms features that have been implemented since your last update.
