Ohio requires e-filing of w-2's, but only in .txt file format.  Can TT generate this format for W-2 Copy 1?

TurboTax converts the W-2 forms into a format required by the Ohio Department of Taxation.  Before we are permitted to e-file returns, we must pass rigorous OH testing requirements (which we always do).

 

Feel secure in the knowledge that TurboTax is doing things as prescribed by the state of Ohio for tax software companies.

Do you mean you are issuing W-2 forms to the feds/state for your employees ???

 

If so the Quick Employer Forms programs doesn't support the efiling of any state forms ...

I have electronically filed, now do I have to mail or submit anything to my State?

After e-filing, be sure to check your state's website for W-2 or 1099 reporting requirements. Each state's requirements vary, and most don't require the forms be submitted. Perform an Internet search for your state web address to find details. You do not need to mail anything to the IRS or SSA after e-filing with Quick Employer Forms.
