The IRS has made recent updates to the federal Form 940 as well as changes to payroll unemployment taxes. And though for years the only changes we payroll professionals had to worry about was normal rate changes for state unemployment each year, these changes – and the financial positions of states regarding unemployment benefits – now make audits and compliance a riskier proposition. But don't fret! This training session reviews the necessary updates, how payroll professionals are affected, and how to stay in compliance. Learning Objectives: - Understanding who and what earnings are subject to unemployment taxes
- A review of FUTA tax rate and tax depositing
- Discuss Form 940 changes and common mistakes made
- How FUTA &SUTA interact - and why it is important to understand
- Discussion on the status of the state unemployment system and how it will affect your job in the coming years
- Details of the FUTA Credit Reductions
- What is the SIDES program and what its impact will be
- How to reduce and maintain your SUI rates
