A few weeks ago, I got a letter from the SSA notifying me that my electronic employer W2 submission was wrong. I knew it was related to the electronic file format generated by Wave, but wasn't sure what was happening. After waiting 2 weeks for a response from their support team, I decided to write a small script to figure out what was happening...

It confirmed to me that their generation was off by a factor of 10. It was fixed later by the company without notifying customers about the issue.
Also, it turns out that the SSA provides a Java applet called AccuWage that allows third-party companies to verify that their file format generation is correct...
Very helpful guide on verification. Clear instructions make it easy to follow. I’ve also used cbtf exchange and it works seamlessly.
