Overview
COVID-19 relief laws brought a series of payroll changes, new obligations and tax credits. This 90-minute webinar reviews those changes as they applied for 2021 and how Form 941 was revised to reflect them.
You'll cover the expansion of the Employee Retention Credit for 2021 and retroactive claims for 2020, mandatory sick leave under the Families First Coronavirus Response Act, the Presidential Memorandum deferral of employee-side Social Security tax and the CARES Act deferral of employer-side Social Security tax.
The session also explains Form 7200 for advance credit claims, changes to Form 941, using Form 941-X for retroactive credit claims and the legislative updates available when it was recorded.
Why attend: The COVID-19 payroll rules created obligations and credits that employers had to report correctly on Form 941 and, for retroactive claims, Form 941-X. Understanding how they worked helps when reviewing or correcting filings from that period. This session suits business owners, managers, office managers, bookkeepers, CFOs, controllers and accountants.
