  2. Review the

    section.
    • Enter missing tax information.
    • If tax information exists, confirm that:
      • Workers meet the criteria for a reference number on the period end date.
      • The
        Start Date
        and
        End Date
        for the reference number includes the period end date.
  3. Change the
    Start Date
    and
    End Date
    if they're incorrect.
    If tax information has changed, preserve tax history by:
    • Entering an
      End Date
      for the current tax information.
    • Adding a row with a new
      Start Date
