Electronic Submission of Withholding W-2s and 1099s
Phoenix, AZ—The Arizona Department of Revenue has taken steps to make submitting W-2s and 1099s easier and faster for employers.
Employers are required each year to submit to the Department of Revenue copies of all the W-2s issued to their employees, and the 1099s that include Arizona withholding, along with the annual Arizona Withholding Reconciliation Return – Form A1-R and Arizona Annual Payment Withholding Tax Return - Form A1-APR.
Employers must submit all withholding returns electronically - Form A1-R, 1099s, and W-2s (A.R.S. § 43-323(F)). This submission will be for the 2022 tax year, due date January 31, 2023.
The Department currently has three methods by which employers may file Forms A1-R and A1-APR electronically:
Electronically submitting federal Forms W-2, W-2c, W-2G, and 1099 to the Department:
Be advised, those filing withholding reconciliation will need to do so via AZTaxes Manual Entry, or register for an AZ Web File account to upload.
For the 2022 tax year, due January 31, 2023, all W-2s will need to be submitted by one of these online electronic methods.
Note: Form 1099-S began being accepted on December 16, 2022, with a filing deadline of March 31, 2023. The filing requirement and layout are available at https://azdor.gov/e-services/e-services-w-2-1099.
Arizona is not offering a general withholding electronic filing or electronic payment waiver for the 2022 tax year. Please see ADOR online tutorials for specifics on the data input or upload methods of electronically filing.
