EMPLOYER'S QUARTERLY WAGE TAX INSTRUCTIONS

 

  1. Amending the Act of December 31, 1965 (PL. 1257, No. 511) Act 210 effective July 15, 1976, providing for the distribution of the Earned Income Taxes collected for the political subdivisions. It will be necessary for each employer to submit a listing by name, social security number, gross earnings and tax withheld so that we may properly credit the political subdivision and individuals account. It will be necessary for the employer to identify the individuals political subdivision as the bureau will match the list submitted by each employer against its master file to identify the proper political subdivision. It will be necessary that all new employees file an IT-5 so that a master record can be set up for the individual stating the political subdivision and school district in which they reside.
  2. On or before February 28, of the succeeding year, every employer shall file with the officer:
  1. The earned income tax is based on gross earnings earned, paid, or received during the tax year. Taxable income includes, but not limited to, wages, salaries, bonuses, tips, commissions, fees and other earned income such as vacation pay, separation payments and taxes assumed by the employer for the employee.
  2. Failure to receive a tax return does not excuse the employer/business and/or its representatives from filing the return or paying the tax due.
  3. Failure to file quarterly will result in a three percent (3%) interest charge. After February 28th interest at 1/2 % per month or fractional month will be charges from due date until the tax is paid.
  4. Penalty at 1/2% per month or fractional month will be charged from the due date until the tax is paid. Minimum charge is $1.00 per quarter.
  5. Improperly executed or unsigned forms will be considered delinquent. Forms must show the actual taxable income, the tax due, the total payment enclosed and other requirements.
  6. If filing by mail, please return the completed form and attach your check or money order with your account number written on it. Include a self-addressed stamped envelope if a receipt is desired.
  7. If your payment is forwarded after the due date indicated on this form, compute and include interest with your remittance. Otherwise, the tax collector will invoice you the same plus additional costs.
  8. For those employers that have computerized payrolls, the bureau will accept a computerized listing with the required information, provided the information is complete and legible to read. W-2's must be provided at the end of the year.
  9. Do not automatically deduct credit for a prior period on this form. You must apply for a refund for any overpayments.
  10. Include form IT-5 for each new employee for whom you will be withholding local tax. This form indicates their name, address, social security number, school district and municipality in which they reside. This information is very important and must be done in order to properly process your quarterly returns. IT-5 forms are sent upon request and available online.
  11. Every employer who discontinues business prior to December 31, of the current year, shall within thirty (30) days after the discontinuance of business, file the returns and withholding statements herein above required and pay the tax due.
  12. Failure, refusal or neglect to make a return required, or to pay the tax imposed shall render the person(s) liable to a fine of $500.00 plus costs and/or thirty (30) days in jail. (P.L. 1257, No. 511)
