2025 SSA W-2 E-filing and Excel to EFW2 are simplified with W2 Mate, Real Business Solutions' IRS-approved software for accurate W-2 and 1099 reporting.

ORLAND PARK, IL / ACCESS Newswire / December 11, 2025 / Real Business Solutions (https://www.realtaxtools.com/), a leading provider of payroll and tax compliance software, today unveiled new features and capabilities inside W2 Mate 2025, including enhanced 2025 W-2 Filing, EFW2 Generation for SSA W-2 Bulk Upload functionality. As the Social Security Administration enforces the lowered electronic filing threshold of 10 returns, thousands of small businesses and CPA firms face the challenge of moving away from paper forms. W2 Mate 2025 addresses this technical hurdle by converting W-2 data into the required EFW2 format (formerly MMREF-1), enabling users to upload wage reports in bulk directly to the SSA's Business Services Online (BSO) platform. This streamlined workflow eliminates manual data entry, reduces administrative time, and ensures full compliance with the latest 2025 regulations.

Key features of W2 Mate 2025 include:

• Streamlined EFW2 Generation: Converts W-2 data into the SSA-compliant EFW2 format required for the 2025 tax season, ensuring acceptance by the Social Security Administration.

• SSA W-2 Bulk Upload Support: Designed to optimize the filing process on the Business Services Online (BSO) portal, allowing users to upload wage files for multiple companies or employees in a single batch.

• Comprehensive Data Import: Seamlessly imports W-2 data from popular accounting platforms-including QuickBooks® and Sage®-as well as from Excel and CSV files, eliminating manual data entry errors.

• Flexible Printing Options: Supports printing on pre-printed government forms or generating laser-generated substitutes on plain white paper for employee copies.

• State Electronic Filing: Generates state-specific electronic filing formats for states that accept the EFW2 format, streamlining compliance for businesses with employees across multiple jurisdictions.

• Unlimited Filers and Employees: Built for high-volume processing, allowing accountants and tax professionals to manage an unlimited number of companies and recipients within a single interface.

• Secure On-Premise Data: Operates as a desktop-based solution, keeping sensitive Social Security numbers and wage data secure on the user's local machine rather than in the cloud.
