IRS Issues Revised Form 941 to 941-X

IRS Issues Revised Form 941 to 941-X

The IRS Form 941, also known as Employer’s Quarterly Federal Tax Return, was scheduled to change in June 2022. Previously, Form 941 was only updated in March for the first quarter reports. Now, the IRS has extended it to the second, third, and fourth quarters.

Employers use Form 941 from the IRS to report income taxes, social security tax, or Medicare tax withheld from employee’s paychecks. Without this report, the IRS would not know if you deposited your employment taxes on time.

Changes To Form 941-X

The new report, Form 941-X, only has two worksheets that must be turned in versus several forms needed to be submitted for Form 941. The IRS also updated changes to Form 941-X to match the changes from Form 941.
