Forms available to e-file include the following:

In order to begin e-filing, you need to purchase ProContractor Electronic Filing and then set up Greenshades Center. When you generate electronic files within ProContractor from your workstation, ProContractor launches Greenshades Center, where you can complete the submission process. Complete the following tasks to set up Greenshades Center for ProContractor:

1. Install Greenshades Center
2. Validate Greenshades Center

You can then open the Greenshades Electronic Filling screen from the All Tasks pane through one of the following methods:

• Select Employees > Quarter and Year End > Greenshades Electronic Filing.
• Select Vendors > Year End > Greenshades Electronic Filing.

Keep this information in mind when e-filing:

• You may need a password or a PIN to e-file online. Contact your tax advisor or the tax authority for details.
• Electronic files within Greenshades Center require a company contact. Since ProContractor does not store a main contact for each company, you must add this information in the Greenshades Center after generating each file.
• In addition to the company contact, Forms W-2 require a company contact email and an MMREF Pin #.
• You cannot not file for a future date. For example, if the current date is March 1, 2022, you cannot file for Q3 2022.

For quarterly SUTA filings to work correctly for New York, the payroll tax authorities must set up as follows:

• The code that identifies the state payroll tax authority must start with NY and the State/Province Abbreviation must be NY.
• For New York City, the code that identifies the local payroll tax authority must be NYC and the Local Abbreviation must be NYC.
• For Yonkers, NY, the code that identifies the local payroll tax authority must be YONK and the Local Abbreviation must be YONK.

If employees are exempt from SUTA, SUI, or SDI in a particular state, a separate payroll tax authority must be set up for those employees and linked to the primary state payroll tax authority as follows:

• On the Greenshades Electronic Filing screen, a state payroll tax authority must be defined for the SUTA/SUI/SDI exempt employees. For example, define NY2 as an additional payroll tax authority for New York.
  • In the General tab, the Report SUTA/SUI/SDI with Payroll Tax Authority field must be set to the primary state payroll tax authority. For example, when defining NY2, enter NY in the Report SUTA/SUI/SDI with Payroll Tax Authority field. The value in this field is the tax authority to be used for SUTA/SUI/SDI reporting purposes.
  • In the State Taxes tab, the SUTA, SUI, and SDI rates must be set as appropriate. For example, if employees are exempt from state disability insurance, the SDI rate should be set to 0. If exempt from SUTA, select the SUTA Exempt checkbox.
• On the Employee screen, assign each exempt employee to the new payroll tax authority. For example, assign the exempt employees in New York to NY2.
  Opmerking: When generating reports or filing electronically, the amounts for employees assigned to the exempt tax authority are added to the amounts for the tax authority specified in the Report SUTA/SUI/SDI with Payroll Tax Authority field. For example, the amounts for NY2 are added to the amounts for NY and are categorized under NY.

If you include Employment Training Tax (ETT) with SUTA for California and file SUTA electronically, the payroll tax authorities must be set up as follows:

• Enter the Employment Training Tax rate separately in the Employment Training Tax (Reporting Only) field.
