This year, completing W-2 forms will be even more challenging for employers that must report employees? health benefits. Critical due dates: Employees must receive their copies by Jan. 31, 2013. The Social Security Administration (SSA) must receive paper forms by Feb. 28, 2013; e-filers must file by April 1, 2013.
