The WH-347 fillable form — two honest options

You can absolutely fill certified payroll by hand. You can also stop re-typing the same header block every Friday. Both paths are right here.

Option 1 — the official blank form (free)

This is the Department of Labor's current WH-347, straight from dol.gov. The PDF is not a true fillable form — the government distributes it flattened, so most contractors print it and complete it by hand or rebuild it in a spreadsheet.

Filling it manually? Our field-by-field guide covers every column, the 4(a)/4(b) fringe election, and the mistakes agencies bounce payrolls for (full SSNs, internal job titles instead of wage-determination classifications, missing payroll numbers).

Option 2 — enter the week once, download it completed ($5)

Our wizard asks for exactly what the form asks for — project, week ending, each worker's classification, daily straight/overtime hours, rate, gross, deductions. You get back:

• A completed WH-347-equivalent certified payroll report — every element of the federal form, in clean landscape layout, DOCX and PDF;
• The Statement of Compliance with the verbatim federal attestation language and your fringe election marked, ready for your officer's signature.

Your figures print exactly as entered — we never recalculate your payroll — and anything the form requires that you haven't provided is flagged [EMPLOYER TO COMPLETE] so nothing slips through unsigned-off.

Equivalent forms are expressly permitted: DOL regulations (29 CFR 3.3–3.4) require the information weekly, not the specific WH-347 layout.

Why not just a spreadsheet template?

Spreadsheets drift: a deleted row breaks a total, last project's contract number survives into this one, and the compliance statement gets paraphrased until it no longer matches 29 CFR 3.3. A generated document starts clean every week, keeps the attestation language verbatim, and costs less than the coffee you'd drink fixing the formulas.

Document preparation only — not legal, accounting, or payroll advice.
