4
5 * Choose the **Complete W-2 eFiling Service **to elect to have Aatrix print the employee copies and mail them directly to the employee. This service includes online access for employees to print their W-2s.
6
7 * Choose **Other Options** and check **Print my Employee W-2s** to elect to print the employee copies in-house.
8 \\//**Note:** Special paper is required to print the employee copies. For W-2 paper, contact your Account/Payroll Software. When an employee has more information than allowed on the form, the employee will receive an additional W-2 form with the information listed. For example, the W-2 form allows two states to be listed. If the employee has a third filing state, the second W-2 form will only display the company information, employee information, and the additional state. //

15 In order to fit the common W-2 envelope, the address positioning does look different on various copies:
16
17 * The **return address** is used for the upper left window pane on the window envelope.
18
19 * On the copy in the upper right, the **employee address** was positioned for the addressee pane in the center of the envelope.

21 * The **social security numbers** were moved away from both addresses to ensure they were not exposed in either window.
