Form 944

IRS Form 944 allows business owners with an annual federal employment tax liability of less than $1,000 to file their taxes just once a year, as opposed to filing form 941 on a quarterly basis. This may apply to your business if you are exempt from federal income tax withholdings, or if you pay less than $6,500 in wages for the year. Most businesses are required to deposit federal income, social security and Medicare taxes on a monthly or semiweekly schedule. In general, if your total taxes are more than $50,000 a year, you will make deposits semiweekly. If your payroll tax liability is less than $50,000, you will make deposits monthly. The government recommends that you make tax deposits the same day you pay your employees to avoid the risk of having to pay fines for late or incorrect depositing.
