SSA allows e-submission of special wages, eliminates disks

If you have any special wage payments (SWPs) to submit, make sure you know which options are still available to you. SSA now accepts SWP information via its Business Services Online program.
You can still submit the information on a paper Form SSA-131 or cartridge models 3490 and 3480. But diskettes and all other cartridges are no longer accepted.
SWP refers to wages paid to employees after they’ve retired or back pay awarded by a court or government agency.
