    If you have any delinquent payroll tax returns, it is imperative that you call Leading Tax Group today to discuss your options. The IRS, EDD, and Tax Board are not forgiving when it comes to delinquent payroll taxes in CA (or anywhere for that matter) and you need firm representation immediately.

    Primary payroll tax returns are due quarterly in California, specifically, on the last day of the month that follows the quarter. What this means is that if your quarter ends on April 30, then your payroll tax return would be due on or before May 31. In addition to your payroll tax returns, all employers must submit their employer contributions.

    Once you fall behind submitting payroll tax returns and payroll tax deposits, it can be difficult to catch up and penalties for nonpayment and noncompliance are hefty and add up rapidly.

    If you find yourself in a position where you may have delinquent payroll tax returns, or you have forgotten to submit the employee’s contributions to the IRS, call Leading Tax Group right away. Our team is here to help you and our tax professionals will not only counsel you, but help you file your returns and get back on track.

    Delinquent Payroll Tax Return Penalties

    When figuring out tax return penalties, if the payments are just late, then the fines are calculated on the amount of time that has passed. The penalty for deposits that are up to 5 days late, for example, is 2%. For deposits that are made between 6 to 15 days late, the penalty is 5%. Any deposits made that are 16 days or late, will incur a 10% fee.

    Once the IRS has issued a notice demanding the late taxes, you will be charged a 15% penalty. These fines add up quickly and will continue to compound until the debt is paid off. This means that you may experience cash flow issues, or you may find yourself in an endless debt cycle.
