• Form 941 is the link between your payroll records and the IRS tax records. Proper administration of this vital form is critical if you want to avoid IRS Notices and the penalties and interest that accompany them.  Schedule B is also a crucial form for many employers.  The IRS demands that Form 941 and Schedule B match to the penny…every single time…without fail!
• It has always been a requirement that Form 941 be reconciled with Form W-2 prior to submitting each form. If the employer fails in this reconciliation, the IRS and Social Security Administration can both assess penalties! This reconciliation has become even more critical these past few years.
