Axium International, once one of the three largest payroll companies serving the entertainment industry, has filed for bankruptcy protection and is no longer in business. They are still obligated to send out W-2 forms to performers who were paid through Axium during calendar year 2007. In fact, AFTRA, in an effort to protect its members, just sent out a notification that Axium just prepared 130,000 W-2 forms, of which 105,000 have already been mailed.

So if you haven’t received your W-2 form yet, be patient; it’s on the way. However, if by some chance you don’t receive your W-2 form for AFTRA-covered work by February 29, 2008, please contact your local AFTRA office or email axium@aftra.com.
