Employees and employers alike collectively dread tax season. The stress is most acute for business owners, especially those operating in Connecticut—the CT W3 form, though deceptively simple, is a laborious and time-consuming process. Additionally, approaches to the form vary by industry. Agricultural employers not registered with DRS must complete a different process, and household employers must fill out a completely separate form. In addition to providing the total Connecticut wages reported during the calendar year, employers must submit a W2 for each employee. CT W3 can require a lot of time, resources, and energy.
AMS has the solution. As a provider of accounting support for more than three decades, we have the products you need to streamline your quarterly and end-of-year reporting processes. Whether you need support for CT W3, CT-W3 HHE, or UC-2, our software will alleviate some tax and wage-related stress. Our line of products is perfect for Connecticut business owners.
