This is so wrong on so many levels. You should never use email documents containing SSNs. Trusting the employees at the UPS store to not look at or record the SSNs of your members is also naive. I share Margaret's relief that I'm not in your club.

Dan,

We have a club of 17, and while all of them are registered on Bivio, not all of them really use Bivio beyond the mail services.   Each year (and I just did this earlier today), I do the following to get everyone their information:

  1. Run the taxes, save off the PDF.
  2. Generate their individual K1/K-3 forms.   There used to be a link to each member's in the tax section, but I didn't see it this year. So for each, open the federal document , "print to PDF" and select the correct page range for each member and save that.
  3. To prevent sending personally identifiable information, each of these files is then "zipped" with their SSN as the password.  7-zip is freeware and works well for this.
  4. Group mail to the club that the forms are being sent and that their SSN is the password to open.
  5. Each zipped K1/K-3 form mailed to each member asking them to acknowledge receipt.

Sounds like a lot of work, but took about an hour to do this.
