Year-End is Almost Here: Are You Ready?

ATTENTION ONLINE CREDIT UNIONS

The end of 2020 is fast approaching!

Are you ready for year-end processing?

Before December 31, ensure that you have entered mortgage points paid and other 1098 data into the tax file, as well as completing regular month-end processing tasks.

From January 1 – January 6, things move quickly! As soon as possible, review the Beginning-of-Year/Tax File Verification reports. Run the Tax Information reports, and verify the Tax File, IRA Balance File distribution data, and HSA Balance File data. The final deadline before CU*Answers begins processing tax data for online clients is Wednesday, January 6, at 5 PM PT.

What should I pay special attention to during 2020 year-end processing, in regards to this year’s1099-MISC changes and the new 1099-NEC form?
