Will I need to purchase W2's & W3's from a Staples type store for submission to the IRS or will QB's printed forms work?
quick end of year question about forms

QB's printed w2 & w3 will work just fine. The employee w2 is *supposed* to be printed on perforated paper with the instructions printed on the back. I purchase the perforated blank paper for the employee copy and use regular plain paper for the other forms. I know some accountants skip the perforated paper and let the employee use sissors if they are actually sending in a
1040 return. I buy a supply of 50 sheets every couple of years from Tenenz

because Staples, etc do not carry the perforated paper. I also get the special sized security envelopes from them to mail the forms out.
You will need to get preprinted 1099s, 1096 forms and envelopes if you need to send those out to vendors. The IRS still requires the red forms that can not be printed with QB.
