Topic Background:

Federal income taxes are such a common occurrence in present times it is easy to forget their relatively recent origin. It is also easy to forget that the withholding of these taxes fall under IRS regulations that are strict and non-yielding in many cases. Simply put, the employer either collects the amount due from the employee or pays their own portion and sends it directly to the IRS. But though it sounds simple and basic it is critical for the employer to withholding the taxes correctly based on several factors including:

  • The type of payroll frequency used by the employer
  • The information supplied on the employee’s Form W-4
  • The taxable wage base and rate in effect for OASDI or social security taxes
  • The rate in effect for Medicare tax
  • If the employee is subject to the Additional Medicare Tax
  • Status of the employees such as nonresident alien or expatriate
  • The wage base and rate in effect for federal unemployment insurance or FUTA

The penalties are severe for failing to comply with employment tax rules and procedures since the IRS imposes both civil and criminal penalties on employers. In addition to these penalties, employers also have to pay interest on any underpayment of tax that is a result of noncompliance with these same regulations.
