Description

Payment of withholding taxes. Provides that the Tax Commissioner may grant a waiver from the semi-weekly payment of withholding taxes to employers with five or less employees subject to withholding. Under current law, an employer whose average monthly liability can reasonably be expected to be at least $1,000 with an aggregate amount required to be withheld exceeding $500 must pay the withholding tax semi-weekly. If the Tax Commissioner grants the waiver, the employer would be authorized to file the withholding return and pay the withholding tax monthly, on or before the twenty-fifth day of the following month.
