Masking Social Security number on W-2 form is needed Merged

The IRS-approved SSN Masking places an "X" over the first five numbers of the recipient's social security number (SSN) or employer identification number (EIN), making this data secure from identity thieves. While this service was allowed by the IRS for 1099-MISC tax form filing before, it may now be applied to W-2 forms, and may be used to truncate EINs as well as SSNs.


Because the IRS has made tax ID protection available for both 1099-MISC and W-2 form filing for 2014, if SSN Masking is not used, and recipient tax form copies are stolen from the mail, the employer who mailed them may be held liable for damages.
