Overview:

The 940 calculates your total FUTA (Federal Unemployment Tax) owed for a calendar year.

FUTA is a tax paid to the federal government, and used to support state unemployment insurance programs. It is due on Jan 31st of each calendar year.

FUTA is not to be confused with SUTA (State Unemployment Tax) ,paid throughout the year to any state you have employees in. However, SUTA payments paid on time minimize your FUTA tax, which is usually set at 0.6% up to $7000 paid to each employee, regardless of the state the employee performs work in.

There are reasons that an employer's FUTA may exceed 0.6% In addition to paying SUTA late. Failure to make FUTA deposits on time, or credit reductions taken by certain states, can result in more FUTA tax owed.

Because of this, and other information required to complete the form 940, employers can find it confusing to complete. So Join Mark Schwartz in this informative webinar.
