SSAN Truncation
Posted: 12.21.09
The IRS has recently initiated a pilot program that allows for social security numbers printed on 1098, 1099, and 5498 forms to be truncated. The rules apply to SSANs only, not EINs. There is a new checkbox on the PRINT OPTIONS screen that implements this capability. When checked, SSANs will be printed as XXX-XX-1234. This option is available on recipient copies only. All other copies will print the full SSAN.
