Overview of the webinar
Year-end payroll is the careful review and verification of your financial information from the fourth quarter of the calendar year through the first quarter of the following year. Businesses are responsible for year-end payroll tasks related to employee payments and records, including:
- Accurately calculating tax liabilities, employee compensation, and deductions to be withheld from employee paychecks.
- Reviewing relevant tax documents to make sure you track all payments correctly in the new year.
- Completing and filing forms with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), Social Security Administration (SSA), and state and local tax departments.
- Identifying and preparing for changes to local, state, and federal employment regulations that affect your business in the new year.
End-of-year payroll is critical to tax compliance. It ensures all federal, state, and local taxes are calculated and filed correctly.
Businesses can avoid penalties or legal issues from missed deadlines or errors by closing payroll, issuing all forms (such as W-2s and 1099s), and reconciling accounts. Being on top of this process helps you meet your legal obligations.
In addition to compliance, the end-of-year payroll provides financial clarity. By closing the year with accurate records, you can confidently plan for the next fiscal year, aligning your budget and financial goals. Payroll accuracy supports your business and employees' tax planning while setting you up for a clean start in the new year.
