Why should you attend?

One of the largest costs for a business is staff compensation. Payroll taxes must be paid and withheld by each business with employees. There are tax forms that need to be filled out and provided to the employee in addition to the amount that is withheld from them. What you must withhold from employees' earnings and what you must pay as an employer depends on a number of factors, including the size of your company, your location, and the residence and workplace of your employees. It can occasionally be overwhelming to comprehend these things, know how much to withhold, how frequently to pay, what forms to file, and what information to include.

There will always be instances where an error is made or something is omitted, regardless of how carefully we verify the numbers and make sure everything is accurate on these forms before they are sent. We will go over how to make changes to the W-2 and 941 forms in detail. We'll go over how to make these changes, how soon you need to give them to the employee, and which government entities are impacted.

State and local governments are among the numerous government bodies that are impacted by these kinds of developments. It's crucial to confirm that you are in compliance and make all required modifications on time. Businesses who fail to properly record modifications and provide them to employees on time risk significant fines and penalties from the IRS as well as state and local governments. You want to stay as far away from these liabilities as you can. You will gain a better understanding of the many circumstances that may require you to make changes to these forms as well as the process for doing so by attending this webinar.
