The Internal Revenue Code necessitates all employers/business owners to withhold taxes (Social Security, Medicare, and income) from each employee’s wages. These taxes are commonly referred to as “withholding taxes” or “Trust Fund taxes.” The term trust fund means that the taxes withheld are held in trust by the employer/business owner until they are paid to the IRS.

Additionally, you must also file Quarterly Federal Tax Returns using Form 941 and an Employer’s Annual Federal Unemployment Tax Return using Form 940. These requirements are applicable to all employers regardless of their business structure. An employment tax lawyer or business tax accountant can help you make sure that all the requirements are met. Keeping you and your business safe from IRS disputes.
