W-2 Form

The W2 Form, or Wage and Tax Statement, is a crucial document that shows how much an employee earned in a year and how much tax was taken out of their paycheck. Our system can pull structured data from W2 forms whether they are PDFs or scanned images.

We can extract these main parts:

  • Employee name and Social Security Number
  • Employer name, address, and Employer Identification Number (EIN)
  • Wages, tips, and other pay
  • Federal income tax withheld
  • Social security wages and tax withheld
  • Medicare wages and tax withheld
  • State and local income tax info
  • Tax year

This is really helpful for:

  • Processing and checking payroll
  • Preparing and filing taxes
  • Keeping employee records
  • Auditing and making sure rules are followed

By pulling data from W2 forms, you can make tax preparation easier, ensure accurate reporting to tax authorities, and easily add employee wage info to various HR and financial systems.

CSV

CSV (Comma-Separated Values) is a simple format for storing tabular data in plain text. Each row is a data record, and columns are separated by commas (or other delimiters).

Technical Details

CSV files represent data in a flat table structure. The first row typically contains column headers, and each subsequent row contains values. Fields containing commas, newlines, or quotes may be enclosed in double quotes.

Advantages

  • Simple format that's easy to create and parse
  • Universal support across spreadsheet applications
  • Efficient storage for tabular data
  • Human-readable and editable in text editors

Limitations

  • No support for nested data structures
  • No standardized way to represent data types
  • Special characters may require escaping
  • No built-in support for formulas or calculations
