Learning Objectives

  • Discuss payroll tax types and federal income tax withholding calculations.
  • Explain federal tax reporting and state withholding frequencies.
  • Analyze obligations for local tax withholding and unemployment taxes.
  • Inspect SUTA wage bases, reporting requirements, and recent FICA wage base increases.
  • Ensure compliance with payroll tax reporting and new federal deposit schedule changes.

Course Overview

Paying employees is one of a company's most significant expenses. Any company with employees is required to withhold and pay payroll taxes. In addition to employee withholdings, employer-paid taxes must be managed carefully. Understanding how much to withhold, how often to pay, and where to pay can be challenging, especially with regulatory updates.

In this CPE Course, we will review the different types of payroll tax withholdings and discuss in detail how to determine what to withhold and how tax obligations change as businesses grow. Recent updates include an increase in the FICA wage base from $168,600 to $176,100, the addition of New Hampshire to the list of states with no state income tax (now totaling nine states), and clarifications on semi-weekly federal tax deposit schedules. You will learn how to adjust payroll processes in response to these changes and ensure compliance with federal, state, and local payroll tax laws.

Major topics discussed:

  • Types of Payroll Taxes
  • Federal Tax Withholding Calculations & Payments
  • Reporting of Federal, State, and Local Taxes
  • State Unemployment Taxes (SUTA) & Compliance
  • Recent Updates: FICA Wage Base Increase, Additional No-Tax States, Deposit Schedule Adjustments

Understanding employer tax obligations is also essential to avoid penalties. Non-compliance can lead to significant fines from the IRS and state and local governments. This webinar will equip you with the knowledge and tools needed to manage payroll tax liabilities effectively, stay compliant, and reduce risks.
