WHAT’S CHANGED

Form W-2. Forms W-2 for 2016 are due January 31 for all copies. In the past, employers had to provide Form W-2 to employees by January 31. Now the January 31 deadline also applies to copies submitted to the Social Security Administration.

C corporations. The due date for regular corporations filing Form 1120 has been pushed back one month to April 15. An automatic five-month extension to September 15 is available.

Foreign account reporting. FinCEN Report 114, Report of Foreign Bank and Financial Accounts, is due April 15, two and a half months earlier than the former due date of June 30. A new six-month extension is available.
