eFile Prep also has the ability to print the form-fill W-2, W-3, 1099-MISC and 1096 paper forms based on data in our Payroll, Accounts Payable, Accounts Receivable and General Ledger modules, and to print W-2 copies B, C and D data and forms all-in-one.

The eFile Prep package retails for $695. There is a new version released annually, as the government requirements change every year. Depending on the extent of changes required to meet the current standards, users of previous versions are normally offered a substantial discount for upgrading to the current version. Registered users of the 2012/13 edition may update to the 2013/14 version for just $249.

With the 2013/14 release, newly revised and updated federal and state Payroll tax tables are also included with eFile Prep, and free updated tables will be emailed to registered users as states and the federal government continue to announce their formulas for 2014.

Also new in the 2013/14 release is the Tax Return Worksheet program, which replaces and improves on the Payroll module's Tax Returns program (program 25), which is no longer updated for tax law changes.
