iWire Directions for 2018

Oregon changed the iWire website and the rule about when you have to submit 1099s

W-2 iWire Filing with QuickBooks

“2013 was the first tax year where the Oregon Department of Revenue had the authority to assess

penalties for non-filing via the iWire system.  The Department is not assessing penalties for 2013 data, because they want to make sure that all businesses are aware of the requirement going forward. For tax year 2014, the Department will begin assessing penalties for non-filers and late filers.” – Oregon Dept of Rev Rep
